Anthropic, OpenAI and other AI giants face conspiracy charges for calling for coordinated slowdown of AI development
Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceX AI, and Google are facing conspiracy charges in federal court for calling for coordinated slowing down of AI development. The lawsuit claims that Anthropic CEO Dario Amodai called for industry coordination, which was endorsed by SpaceX AI leader Elon Musk, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and Google DeepMind co-founder Demis Hasabis. The plaintiff believes that this constitutes an illegal business agreement between competitors that violates US antitrust laws.
