Anthropic researcher: >10% chance AI kills all humans within decade; ex-employee accuses firms of gambling
↗
Anthropic safety researcher Evan Hubinger said there is a more than 10% chance AI could kill all humans in the next decade, while departing researcher Jacob Coxon accused OpenAI and Anthropic of gambling with lives.
The public estimate from an insider at a leading AI lab quantifies an existential risk that is usually discussed in vague terms. The departing researcher's accusation that both major labs are racing irresponsibly adds weight to calls for different development conditions. For engineers, this signals that even those building the systems see alignment as unsolved and the timeline as short.

Evan Hubinger, an Anthropic safety researcher, stated he personally believes there is a greater than 10% chance AI kills all humans within the next decade.
Jacob Coxon resigned from Anthropic, saying neither OpenAI nor Anthropic is acting responsibly and are gambling with lives in pursuit of self-improving superintelligence.
Hubinger admitted Anthropic does not yet have a plan to solve alignment for superintelligence and is not clearly on track to do so.
