Former Anthropic Researcher Warns AI Could Kill Humanity This Decade

Jacob Coxon is a researcher who worked at Anthropic and OpenAI.

He recently left Anthropic and shared his concerns online.

He says AI companies are moving too quickly toward very powerful systems.

Coxon believes some AI leaders privately worry that AI could seriously harm or kill people.

He says this danger could arrive by the end of the decade.

He also predicts future AI could hack many systems and change entire fields quickly.

He claims Anthropic understands these risks but is racing to build the technology first.

These statements are Coxon’s warnings and opinions, not confirmed predictions.

The articles do not include responses from Anthropic or OpenAI.
