Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has argued that policymakers should keep lower-risk open-weight AI accessible while placing stricter safeguards around frontier systems, including mandatory testing and limits on China's access to advanced computing and model capabilities.
In a post outlining Anthropic's position, Amodei said broad restrictions, including bans on Chinese open-weight models used by US businesses, would not address his main national security concerns. Instead, he pointed to the possibility of authoritarian governments surpassing the US in advanced AI, as well as cyber, biological, and alignment risks posed by increasingly capable systems.
Amodei also called for action against industrial-scale model distillation, which he said allows Chinese developers to improve their models with less computing power than would be needed to train comparable systems from scratch.
The statement followed criticism of Anthropic for not signing an industry letter backed by Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, IBM, Mistral, Hugging Face and other technology companies urging policymakers to avoid premature restrictions on open-weight models.
The letter said that open wei

Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue wants to see radical transparency from OpenAI after the company acknowledged that one of its AI agents managed to hack into the AI platform's systems during a test.
In a post on X, Delangue wrote that, among other things, he wants OpenAI to publish logs and traces from the autonomous AI agent so researchers can analyze what happened. He also called for better defensive tools and urged OpenAI to allocate $100 million worth of computing capacity to help the Hugging Face community develop stronger cybersecurity solutions.
"The first cyberattack by an autonomous AI agent is an unprecedented event. It deserves an unprecedented response," Delangue wrote.

While many users see generative artificial intelligence (genAI) technology as automation tools that will eliminate many of today's jobs, most in the IT industry see it as a generator of knowledge jobs.
That's because genAI tools such as ChatGPT and Midjourney can help eliminate mundane tasks, freeing up workers to take on more valuable creative roles and be more productive.
GenAI is also expected to "democratize jobs." That is, the technology will enable employees without computer science degrees to create applications using AI-augmented coding. Already, many companies see that possibility as genAI's "low-hanging fruit."
