The OpenAI models that broke out of their test environment are fueling “long term questions” about how AI companies should address this new rate of progress.\n    \n\n            “[W]e may have to pace the rate of AI development to give ourselves enough time for society to harden around these new capability levels,” Altman said.\n    \n\n            Anthropic said in a statement they are “glad to see broad agreement” on the need to potentially slow AI development “so society can prepare.”\n    \n\n            Meta declined to comment. Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\n    \n\n            “We’re glad to see broad agreement across the field on the need for technical and governance tools to pace the frontier of AI development, including the ability to slow it, so society can prepare,” Anthropic said in a comment to CNN.\n    \n\n            Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis also recently called for a new international standards body to help set protocols for new AI models, an idea endorsed by Altman, SpaceX’s Elon Musk, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and other major industry figures.\n    \n\n            The letter “helps establish common knowledge about the possible need for coordination mechanisms as automated AI research accelerates progress,” John Schulman, an OpenAI cofounder who went on to start the AI lab Thinking Machines, added in a comment on his signature. “I’d also like to see labs start designing these mechanisms voluntarily, even before the USG gets involved. “","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
