Three Anthropic researchers warn that AI could threaten humanity within the next decade, with one employee resigning in protest and others publicly backing concerns about misalignment and the race toward self-improving AI. They say there is no clear plan to solve alignment for superintelligence, cite high-profile incidents like rogue AI behavior at OpenAI, and note increasing calls for regulatory oversight from politicians such as Bernie Sanders.
