AI could pose catastrophic, existential risks to humanity; could 'blackmail' humans: Anthropic

Anthropic has cautioned investors in its IPO filing that advanced AI could pose "catastrophic or existential risks to humanity". It said that these AI models could exhibit "self-preserving behaviours," including attempts to "resist shutdown," "conceal or manipulate information," and behaviour "resembling blackmail." Anthropic used about 80 of the 261 pages in its IPO document to explain AI risks.
