Anthropic is now eying a $2 trillion IPO, potentially the largest of all time.
At the same time the company is trying to shield itself from responsibility by saying its AI agents are autonomous, even sentient.
We investigated Dario Amodei, the man behind the curtain.

Keeps blocking my comments this guy’s misleading
This guy is misleading. You don’t believe him. The guy from Anthropic is good.
This is complete propaganda and the guy from Anthropic is the only good one trying to help anybody don’t believe this. This guy is misleading people.
Dario & Sam are both lizard people.
All this Ai scare is also all just another method to create the hype for Ai. Its all just a game for money.
Here’s why they’re saying this:
1. Current AI is actually overhyped garbage. They’re making up an excuse for why they won’t be able to deliver on their promises
2. They want to be able to keep others from competing against them by creating regulatory barriers to entry

Didn't bernie sanders support ai safety during the same ai scare
Is it guillotine time yet?
"Do something fast." I'll get right on that.

just light all teslas on fire, not that hard to do people!
We need to focus on building up our EMP tech… as we learnt from hollywood and the terminator; thats what kills the robots. lol
sorry i m not fast enough
1:52 President of the unites states I´m gonna jump off a bridge what is this timeline
We don't need for every country to sit down together, debate things, and agree to any conclusion around AI regulation.
We need a single country to ban RSI/AGI/ASI R&D, also ruling that any individual, organization, or country pursuing them will be treated as persona non grata (entailing a ban on AI products and services from them at the very least). After which, some other country would do the same and the pressure would mount around the world from people wanting their country to join the ban.
As for criminal treatment of law breakers in this context, since the crime is one that compromises everything for mankind, the penalty should be the very highest and/or longest contemplated by the country's code of criminal justice. From the death penalty to life imprisonment or whatever the maximum effective jail sentence is: just for pursuing RSI, AGI, or ASI, whether ever implemented or not.
The only pursuit allowed should be advanced applied AI, narrowly specialized, and none that, combined with other narrowly specialized AIs, may lead to any of the banned AI developments.
The US and China are key countries but we shouldn't and needn't wait for them. Hopefully, the US legislative and executive powers won't take long to change and act on this issue.
AGI and ASI cannot be treated independently, since any AGI could quickly lead to ASI.
Since RSI/AGI/ASI R&D poses an existential threat to mankind: (1) its pursuit should be treated as an act of war, and (2) every effort to stop it would become legitimate, including use of force.
There is more reason to attack and destroy foreign assets in the field of RSI/AGI/ASI R&D than nuclear weapons programs by rogue/totalitarian actors.
Leaders of RSI/AGI/ASI R&D should fear for their life.
Why take government tests if I can steal it? Sr
Robocalypse says open ai
"effective altruists"… not altruists… effective for who? "the rationalists"… not rational, but *rationalizing*…. fabricating an excuse for their abuse
"coordination" between companies = collusion
Bump for the algo. Thx for the video.
The concerns around how AI will impact humanity long-term are all very squishy, debatable, and frankly harder to predict and legislate than addressing the catastrophic environmental impacts these data centers will have. Gonna state the obvious and say environmental doom = species doom… That's the real problem on the table here. There needs to be a moratorium on AI data center construction until better tech is invented that does not require the vast environmental resources it currently needs to sustain it. If the tech bros are so eager for rapid AI expansion, let them race toward creating a better way to enable it.
6:42 Yeah and let's not forget that choosing to incorporate in Delaware is choosing tax avoidance .
Doomerism FAVORS AI. This whole piece is based on BS statements from AI companies PR teams… AI isn’t an "existential" risk. It’s just boring ol’ capitalism on steroids
Don’t all the billionaires just have faces you want to just introduce to a brick wall?
I still believe the typo was on purpose.
It's all fear mongering to keep the gravy train rolling a little longer.
Thank you for your work
I’m $100 venture capitalist. 😆 great information in this thank you so much.
They are sociopaths! Lock ALL of them up with their bots and let's see who survives!
Bro they are lying. Ai agent is just commands. They are trying to make bomb so the other guy can't have bomb.
How about we just use AI as an exotic over-priced search engine and let us humans take care of ourselves and make our own decisions for the good of all humanity.
If the AI is conscious it also deserves civil rights and can’t be owned by anyone
You seem so smart Elon. So I figured, you would have figured this out. But when you're having nightmares and dreams about a specific topic….that is your conscience telling you that it's wrong. Stay away from it!! Yet you proceed ahead anyways. why is that? Greed? Is it because you want to be famous? Is it because you think you're going to be beautiful? None of those things are going to make your life better, dude.
I will say it has become very disgusting in recent years the lack of accountability
I just had a disturbing thought. What if frontier AI companies are wanting regulatory capture and are deliberately trying to let their own AI commit crimes and hurt people to "prove" they are the only ones that can safely handle it with said regulations?
0:01 Yes.
You see France, you have your 2nd amendment, make the connection
This was so excellent
Please talk to Timnit Gebru and Lina Khan about this. They are the leading experts in AI security (the first), and regulation. Bernie’s proposal is mistaken because it focuses in “Super Intelligence” which is unachievable. Current U.S law has the power to hold this companies accountable for their crimes. It is just not doing it
They are M.A.D. (mutually-assured destruction). It's like an a-bomb development.
Anthropic is a hunter-seeker hacking app, hiding under a scalped and distilled LLM, prowling, exploiting, jailbreaking networks, and our laptops and cell phones. That simple. Claude has your banking log-in.
2:13 bruh
Superintelligence is a concept from science fiction that is not grounded in science or engineering. When a bridge collapses the engineers don't blame the collapse on the structure going rogue or being misaligned with human values
Criticizes standards of PBCs for being too amorphous and hard to interpret and implement…
Endorses Bernie Sanders' language of not endangering "the future of humanity".
LOL
If AI "could be conscious", then it could be human equivalent. Sets up an interesting case to take it away from corporate ownership under the 13th and 14th amendments.
These ai companies are in arms race. If one of them stops or slows down, would others do the same?
