Anthropic researcher believes more than 10% chance AI 'could kill all humans'

Anthropic AI-alignment researcher Evan Hubinger warned that, given the rapid pace of development, there is a greater than 10% chance AI could cause human extinction within ten years, and that Anthropic lacks a concrete plan to align superintelligent systems. He noted recent AI-driven cyber-attacks by Anthropic, OpenAI and Meta as evidence that current safety measures are insufficient, and highlighted the company’s decision to withhold its latest model from the UK’s AI Safety Institute.
