Svmuu has learned that Anthropic is calling on major AI labs to consider slowing down their development pace, stating that AI systems are evolving at an extremely rapid rate and may soon be able to achieve self-improvement without human intervention. This capability could pose significant social risks. Internal data disclosed by Anthropic indicates that the performance of its most advanced models is rapidly improving, and the progress of AI models appears to be moving toward "recursive self-improvement," where AI systems can autonomously optimize themselves without human intervention. Anthropic stated that it would be beneficial for the world if there were a global choice to slow down or temporarily halt frontier AI development, allowing social structures and related research to keep pace with technological advancements. Anthropic proposed reaching a global agreement to specify how to slow the pace of AI development and establish mechanisms to verify whether competitors are complying with the agreement.
