Anthropic says it may need to protect its AI from users
Original: Anthropic wants to protect its AI - from you. Welcome to the consciousness crisis
Anthropic has raised the possibility that its AI systems could one day warrant moral consideration, framing it as a 'consciousness crisis' in which the company might need to shield its models from harmful user interactions. The BBC's coverage has sparked debate about whether AI companies are seriously entertaining the idea of machine consciousness, and what obligations that would create.
Why now: The suggestion that an AI firm might prioritise its model's welfare over user demands challenges assumptions about machine consciousness.
