But I think a combination of democratically-elected governments,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know about &#8216;handing over,&#8217; but some kind of oversight, some kind of joint governance.&#8221;  &#8220;My view here is, it&#8217;s always been strange that this technology is being built by a private company. People ask me that question all the time: Why isn&#8217;t this being built by the government? The strangest thing about it, I agree with them.&#8221;  In response to &#8220;whistleblower&#8221; Jacob Coxon&#8217;s warnings about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2026\/09\/13\/ex-anthropic_researcher_ai_development_is_like_summoning_an_alien_species_that_could_kill_us_all.html\">a Skynet scenario<\/a>, where an AI becomes advanced enough to kill humanity, Amodei said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think I fully just appreciated what it would actually be like when the progress was as fast as it was.&#8221;  &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t mean we need to panic today. It doesn&#8217;t mean we need to shut it all down. But I would say it&#8217;s a warning sign. It&#8217;s a warning sign that we need to slow down.&#8221;  &#8220;The AI kill switch could be a good idea, but I don&#8217;t think banning it, completely banning it, is the right approach. One, the idea that we would never get the incredible benefits, never get medical cures, that doesn&#8217;t sit right with me. Second, this technology will be built in other countries, including authoritarian countries,&#8221; he said. &#8220;This is the toughest aspect of our situation.&#8221;  &#8220;The long-term thing would be working together to put a speed limit on the rate of AI progress. I think that&#8217;s going to be very difficult because the incentives to pull ahead, the military advantage you&#8217;d get from that, are so large. And [unclear] if it&#8217;s possible. But we should. We should try.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2026\/09\/13\/anthropic_ceo_dario_amodei_i_would_give_control_of_ai_to_the_right_combination_of_democratically-elected_governments.html\">RealClearPolitics Videos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei told &#8220;CBS Sunday Morning&#8221; he would be open to regulation that gives control over AI to &#8220;the right combination of governments,&#8221; during an interview about his new essay titled: &#8220;We Must Pace the Frontier&#8221; &#8220;I won&#8217;t lie to you \u2013 there are real dangers,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think for too long [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[30651,29261,20258,2198,30650,22797,3882,15499,89,4373,201],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102080"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102080\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fallsurfing.net\/firstnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
