Anthropic CEO urges disarmament talks with China to slow AI

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei likened the US–China AI race to the Cold War and urged disarmament-style negotiations with Beijing to set a ‘speed limit’ on AI development, arguing it could reduce the risk of ‘potential destruction.’ He framed it as a geopolitical lens rather than a direct model and noted support from Elon Musk and Sam Altman, while acknowledging ongoing debate among tech leaders about how to restrain AI growth without sacrificing competitiveness.
