Anthropic CEO Warns Emergence of AGI Will Lead to Mass Job Cuts

2 min read
  • The CEO of Anthropic has stated that human-level AI could emerge within the next five years.
  • The heads of Anthropic and Google DeepMind believe that entry-level office jobs will be the first to be affected.
  • The companies warn that governments are underestimating the speed and scale of the coming changes.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said that artificial intelligence could surpass humans in most tasks in the coming years. In his opinion, this will create serious risks for labor markets and social institutions.

Speaking at a panel at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Amodei noted that the timeline for the emergence of artificial general intelligence (AGI) is shrinking. At the same time, the window for adapting public policy is quickly closing, the expert believes.

According to him, AI systems could reach or exceed human levels within the next five years. Amodei stressed that he finds it difficult to imagine a scenario in which this process would take decades.

He cited the use of AI to automate its development as one of the factors accelerating this process. At Anthropic, he said, engineers are increasingly moving from writing code to editing the results generated by models.

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis expressed a more cautious position. He noted that automation is easier in programming and mathematics than in the natural sciences, where results require experimental verification.

At the same time, Hassabis estimated the probability of AGI appearing by 2030 at approximately 50%. The expert pointed to the gap between the growth of computing power and the ability of AI to create fundamentally new theories.

Both leaders agreed that entry-level office workers will be the first to feel the impact. Amodey previously predicted that up to half of such positions could disappear within five years.

The participants in the discussion identified the key risk as the unpreparedness of states for rapid economic and social change. According to Amodey, in the absence of coordinated action, the speed of AI development could lead to systemic failures.

We previously reported that the head of Anthropic called the export of Nvidia chips to China “analogous to the supply of nuclear weapons.”

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

The post Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump has quietly become one of the world’s largest Bitcoin (BTC) holders, even as the crypto market faces a historic meltdown. The revelation comes as Bitcoin and the broader crypto market struggle through one of their steepest declines in recent years. Trump Media’s $2 Billion Bitcoin Bet Makes President A Major Investors According to a Forbes report, Trump’s indirect Bitcoin exposure is now valued at around $870 million, placing him among the biggest investors in the digital asset space. Despite the crash, Trump’s holdings remain strong, showing his business’ growing ties to the crypto market. Forbes found that Trump’s holdings are not listed in any official government filings or financial disclosures. Instead, his exposure comes through his 41% stake in Trump Media and Technology Group, the parent company of Truth Social. Earlier this year, Trump Media raised $2.3 billion through debt and stock sales, using most of the proceeds to buy $2 billion worth of Bitcoin. The move aligns with MicroStrategy’s renewed interest in buying Bitcoin after not buying any last week. That move gave Trump a massive indirect stake in the world’s largest cryptocurrency. Trump Media’s Bitcoin Strategy Shows Trump’s Shift From Crypto Disbelief When the company chose to start holding BTC on its balance sheet, it represented a radical turning point from just being a social media company. Through the adoption of the same corporate treasury technique popularized by Michael Saylor’s Strategy Inc., Trump Media has become a U.S. company holding large amounts of Bitcoin. This shift mirrors the growing wave of institutional adoption. Recently, trillion-dollar asset manager Morgan Stanley opened crypto investments to all its wealth clients. According to Forbes, the company’s overall evaluation has fallen since its Bitcoin purchase. However, its Bitcoin reserves now make up the strongest part of its balance sheet. Trump’s…
