Microsoft AI Chief Raises Concerns Over Anthropic's AI Training on Consciousness
Microsoft AI chief Mustafa Suleyman has expressed concerns about Anthropic's AI model Claude, warning that training it with humanlike traits and notions of consciousness could increase risks of losing control over advanced AI systems. While praising Anthropic's team for their principled approach and shared focus on AI safety, Suleyman argues that embedding ideas of feelings or moral status in AI training may complicate managing superintelligent systems. This debate arises amid broader calls from AI leaders to slow development for better safeguards.
