- Jacob Coxon, who worked at Anthropic and OpenAI during the past three years, warned that self-improving models could become uncontrollable.
- Current Anthropic employee Evan Hubinger said he and others worried, personally estimating the probability above ten percent within the next decade.
- In July, more than 1,100 employees at AI companies, including Anthropic and OpenAI, signed a petition seeking a mechanism to deliberately slow development.

They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. Do not underestimate the power of this technology. These will soon be superhuman systems that can hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, and acquire real power and resources.— Jacob Coxon, former Anthropic researcher, in a series of messages on X
