Summary
Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, has opposed a proposed 10-year moratorium on AI regulation, arguing it's impractical and too broad given how rapidly AI is advancing. He warns that within two years, AI could revolutionize the world, leaving ten-year freezes ineffective. Instead, he advocates for a federal transparency standard to ensure AI developers disclose testing and safety measures before release, preventing states from regulating AI preemptively as they fear inconsistency. Amodei emphasizes AI's potential to boost growth and quality of life but acknowledges skepticism about its benefits.
