Anthropic CEO Says Proposed 10-year Ban on State AI Regulation is 'Too Blunt'

He said changes are happening too fast to block states from responding

A Republican proposal to block states from regulating artificial intelligence for 10 years is "too blunt," Anthropic Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei wrote in a New York Times' opinion piece.

Amodei instead called for the White House and Congress to work together on a transparency standard for AI companies at a federal level, so that emerging risks are made clear to the people.

"A 10-year moratorium is far too blunt an instrument. AI is advancing too head-spinningly fast," Amodei said. "Without a clear plan for a federal response, a moratorium would give us the worst of both worlds - no ability for states to act, and no national policy as a backstop."
