Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, along with Demis Hassabis of Google DeepMind, have publicly endorsed the idea that the pace of AI development should slow down. This caution follows calls by leaders of Anthropic, OpenAI, and Hugging Face to the UN for international coordination on AI risks. Separately, Anthropic released its new Claude Opus 5.5 model, which is 40% cheaper and 30% faster than its predecessor.
