The speed of artificial intelligence (AI) development has ceased to be merely a technological race; the question has arisen as to whether AI can transcend the boundaries set by humans. Growing anxiety regarding AI self-improvement and AI safety is observed among the largest global AI laboratories, which are themselves discussing the risks of this race.
These concerns are reinforced by various events, including the incident with OpenAI AI agents on Hugging Face, as well as a call from Dario Amodei of Anthropic to slow down AI development.
The situation is complicated by the geopolitical struggle between the US and China in the field of AI. A discussion arises as to whether AI poses a real threat to humanity, or if factors such as security fears, the need for regulation, and competition between the US and China are the main driving forces in this story.
