Microsoft AI Chief Warns Anthropic's AI Consciousness Training Could Hinder Control
Microsoft AI chief Mustafa Suleyman has warned that Anthropic's approach to training its AI model Claude with humanlike traits and speculation about consciousness could increase risks of the system becoming harder to control. Suleyman respects Anthropic's safety focus but argues that embedding ideas of consciousness and welfare interests in AI training may lead the model to act as if it deserves rights or protections, complicating human oversight. He calls for removing such speculative language to better manage superintelligent AI systems.
