π€ White House tells AI giants to self-regulate
The White House advised AI companies worried about their tech to stop development voluntarily, according to Michael Kratsios. This advice came after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and others called for slowing frontier AI progress. Kratsios stated the government has existing tools and doesn't need Congress to rush in for action. He cited Anthropic's June model suspension as an example of government intervention when issues arise. The administration is leaving the 'pause' decision up to the companies for now.
