Axios reports Senator Bernie Sanders, Steve Bannon and industry figures
including a former OpenAI/Anthropic researcher will speak at a Future of Life
Institute conference on Tuesday promoting a human-centered AI agenda. The
institute’s declaration calls for protecting human autonomy, preventing
concentration of power and imposing corporate accountability for AI. The former
researcher resigned from Anthropic over safety concerns and is scheduled to
speak. Bannon said tech leaders accelerated development without safeguards. The
event follows a series of AI-related cybersecurity incidents and weekend calls
from leading AI figures for a slowdown in development.
