“It's not about specific players in the race. It's not about any individual executives, it's about the structural reality of the race. It doesn't matter who the players are on the chessboard, it's the game of chess itself.”

“I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pre-training research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives.”
— Jacob Coxon
“The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade. This is not a marketing stud. If anything, many execs and senior researchers will counter phrasing in the press to sound sensible.”
— Jacob Coxon, Anthropic researcher
