Anthropic warns AI may pose ‘existential risks to humanity’

Anthropic plans to caution potential investors in its IPO that advanced AI could pose catastrophic or existential risks to humanity. This extraordinary warning comes as the company seeks funding for the same technology. According to its IPO prospectus, Dario Amodei's firm intends to spend $518 billion on cloud computing. Wall Street has described the prospectus as a head scratcher due to the inclusion of this doomer language regarding the potential for humanity's existential risk.
