One of the biggest companies in the AI sector Anthropic who designed the AI system Claude will be putting themselves on the stock market under an IPO (Initial public offering) when they have lost over €80 billion in just the first half of this year. The below could be wrote about most AI companies but Anthropic is the only one to defy the US government and its owner seems to at least be warning us about massive downsides. They stood out for the past few months for some good reasons when you move to the side the mental money they lost this year because the US government wanted to have full access to their AI to develop software to use with the likes of Tomahawk missiles and they said no. The Pentagon then black listed them and the biggest pussy in the world that runs the US Department of Defence Pete Hegseth then designated Anthropic; “national security supply-chain risk” - a law typically reserved for companies based in countries that pose a threat to the US." Not long after they told the US military to fuck off, the US used another AI system when they started a war with Iran and blew up a school on the first day killing 156 civilians which included 120 children which is a war crime. The AI system they used had maps built into it that were years out of date because AI has been built by scraping all known information off the web and there are no checks to confirm if its relevant let alone up to date. The AI system they used has not been released even after US politicians requested the information. The CEO of Anthropic came out numerous times warning about the very serious risks of AI, at the start of the year he wrote on his blog (which is linked below) “The Adolescence of Technology - Confronting and Overcoming the Risks of Powerful AI” in which he warned when talking about the positives of a normal person having advanced AI at our fingertips as we do with other apps on our phones; “But not every effect of making everyone superhumanly capable will be positive. It can potentially amplify the ability of individuals or small groups to cause destruction on a much larger scale than was possible before, by making use of sophisticated and dangerous tools (such as weapons of mass destruction) that were previously only available to a select few with a high level of skill, specialized training, and focus.” AI can be our step towards medical equipment and treatment that is like something out of Star Trek, it can improve in real time our public transport but the risks need to be seriously weighed because AI has been hacking outside of experiments all the time.
