Leaked AI safety bill from Anthropic only requires government intervention if 50+ injuries or $1 billion are at risk
Claude, finish drafting my single-use ray gun which can only vaporize $999 million worth of stuff and/or 49 people.
AI Summary
A confidential draft of an AI safety bill from Anthropic, the maker of the Claude language models, has been leaked to lawmakers, according to Politico and reported by PC Gamer. The proposal would permit federal intervention against an AI system only when it presents a foreseeable, imminent threat that could cause over $1 billion in damages or result in the death or serious injury of more than 50 people. The bill specifies that such risk must arise from the creation or release of a biological weapon, the model evading its developer’s controls, or a cyber‑attack.
