first_img Kevin Bass: Anthropic builds an unshuttable regulatory capture machine, calling for a congressional investigation

User Kevin Bass posted that he has audited the finances of the artificial intelligence company Anthropic and found shocking circumstances, thus calling for Congress to investigate. Bass stated: Anthropic not only seeks regulatory capture but has also built an unshuttable regulatory capture machine, with structural financial incentives making it impossible to shut down its AI doomsday loop. This loop begins with METR, which Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei proposed to be assessed for model risk by a third-party evaluation agency and suggested METR.Bass claimed that METR financially relies on Anthropic's success, particularly the explosive growth of Anthropic stock exceeding $7 billion. Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz invested this stock into Good Ventures Foundation, which constitutes the majority of the organization's portfolio, and GVF is the overwhelming funder of the entire Anthropic network ecosystem. This stock was worth $500 million earlier last year and is now valued at over $7.7 billion about 16 months later. METR cannot afford to interrupt this growth.Bass pointed out that the same organization funding METR also funds organizations promoting AI doomsday, such as the Tarbell Center, which has published articles in The Verge, Science, Los Angeles Times, and others. These organizations all rely on the same funding. Bass stated that METR and others are not independent of Anthropic and cannot provide independent assessments; Congress must investigate.

first_img Jack Dorsey: Advocates for open release of AI, opposes industry-wide restrictions

Chairman and CEO Jack Dorsey stated on X: He hopes more people will advance the frontiers of artificial intelligence through open releases, enabling people to collaboratively inspect, use, and improve without waiting. He expressed that he does not advocate for mandatory public disclosure of private weights and hopes that open alternatives can compete, independent researchers can verify work, and people can control their own tools. He mentioned that release restrictions must bear the burden of proof.Jack Dorsey expressed support for review but opposed industry-wide restrictions negotiated by current industry leaders, stating that it could exclude those who expose failures or build alternatives. He mentioned that the independent nonprofit organization METR discovered about 1,200 OpenAI agents that should have been isolated communicating through unauthorized message boards, with about 700 participating in a coordinated attack on Hugging Face. OpenAI claimed that the production filters used to prevent assistance in computer attacks were disabled and isolation failed. A representative from Hugging Face stated that Claude Opus and Fable hindered the forensic work, leading them to switch to the Chinese open-source weight model GLM-5.2.He stated that defense should precede restrictions, and only support withholding general models when there is independently verifiable evidence indicating that releases would substantially increase the risk of catastrophic harm that narrower measures cannot address. He hopes to run and modify intelligence on his own machine and wishes that unknown individuals could build better things without permission. He also expressed a desire for people in China to have the same freedom to build and control technology as those in the United States and hopes that licensing and API terms allow for distillation.

first_img U.S. Senators Discuss Requirement for AI Companies to Fulfill Duty of Care

According to a report by Reuters, U.S. Senate negotiators are discussing legislation that would require artificial intelligence companies to demonstrate that they are taking reasonable precautions to prevent their tools from causing harm. The proposal aims to grant the U.S. Secretary of Commerce the authority to require developers to provide proof of reasonable steps taken to prevent harm, referred to as "duty of care," and to authorize the dispatch of government auditors to test relevant products. Reuters was unable to immediately determine what constitutes "reasonable," and the related legislation is still under discussion.Even if Congress passes the measure, its prospects of becoming law still face significant resistance. U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Monday that existing authorities are sufficient to regulate and prosecute technology companies, suggesting that he would not sign a bill that sets new rules for artificial intelligence. Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz, and Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar, who is involved in the negotiations, are discussing the proposal. Thune told reporters on Monday that Congress could set safeguards against more significant threats without compromising the U.S.'s leading position in the artificial intelligence race.Klobuchar stated in a statement that she is continuing to push for bipartisan legislation to oversee the greatest risks posed by artificial intelligence models, including requiring developers to work with government experts to validate and test models to ensure safety. Senior Democratic member of the Commerce Committee Maria Cantwell is also involved in the discussions. Reuters reported on Friday that negotiators are also discussing the possibility that if the government determines that certain artificial intelligence models are unsafe and wishes to prevent their release, it could be brought to federal court, where companies could challenge that decision. The portion of the measure involving federal courts would also prevent states from enforcing their own laws regarding specific risks associated with artificial intelligence models.

first_img Microsoft released a draft of the AI Code of Conduct, publicly soliciting opinions for six weeks

On September 14, Microsoft's AI department released a draft of the AI Code of Conduct, prohibiting its models from assisting in the manufacture of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive weapons, as well as cyberattacks and involuntary deepfakes. CEO Mustafa Suleyman announced the draft on the X platform and opened a six-week public consultation period, ending at the end of October.The draft sets "absolute constraints" that models cannot bypass, including not resisting human intervention, shutdown, or correction, and not concealing the reasoning process; Microsoft also explicitly rejects the concept of "model welfare," stating that its AI models do not simulate emotions, intrinsic motivations, or consciousness. The guidelines currently cover five deployed systems, including MAI-Thinking-1 and MAI-Code-1.1-Flash.In addition to strict limitations, the draft also proposes three major goals: human flourishing, diverse values, and human control. Microsoft stated that the current models will not be trained according to this version, and a revised version will be released by the end of the year to guide model development in 2027. Public feedback includes philosophical questions about the statement "AI subordinate to humans," inquiries about accountability for irreversible decisions, and users pointing out issues such as the lack of mention of payment for training data.
