Tech Giants Back AI Slowdown Proposal
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for coordinated pacing of AI development on Saturday.
He warned that catastrophic damage could occur within six months if development continues unchecked.
Major rivals including Sam Altman and Elon Musk publicly endorsed his proposal.
Anthropic is preparing for a stock market listing with a valuation up to $2 trillion.
The company committed to spending $517 billion on compute over the coming years.
This spending figure is more than eight times its $65 billion annualized revenue.
Analysts note that training new models is pure cost while inference generates up to 70% margins.
Critics argue the slowdown proposal serves Anthropic's financial interests ahead of its initial public offering.
