Aktivista na nogama pred Anthropic u San Franciscu

Na deveti dan svoga štrajka glađu, aktivista Guido Reichstadter protestuje ispred sedišta kompanije Anthropic u San Franciscu protiv razvoja AGI — veštačke opšte inteligencije. Štrajk glađu se koristi kao sredstvo da se upozori javnost na rizike AGI, rast kompanija i širenje modela poput Claude.

Zabrinutost zbog kontrole i bezbednosti AGI

Reichstadter tvrdi da kompanije koje rade na AGI nemaju jasan plan za kontrolu te tehnologije i upozorava na moguće opasnosti. "When you get into the systems that these companies are trying to build, that exceed human capabilities in every important respect, this is an entirely new class of danger," Reichstadter told Futurism from the sidewalk in front of Anthropic's office. " Whatever speculative benefits these systems could bring, the fact is that none of these companies have any idea, any practical roadmap for how to control that power once they build it."

On smatra da korporacije namerno ugrožavaju živote ljudi i zahteva da zaustave trku za opasnim AGI. "None of these companies have a right to do what they're doing, which is consciously endangering my life, my family's life, all of our lives," the activist continued. "The correct thing for them to do is stop the global race toward really dangerous AI that we're all involved in."

Ciljevi protesta i širenje akcije

Reichstadter alternira između zahteva za razgovor sa izvršnim direktorima i poziva na prekid rada na AGI. "If Dario Amodei isn't willing to [stop], he owes me an explanation, to my face," the activist said. "My goal is to either stop work, or receive an explanation."

Njegov primer je inspirisao druge proteste, uključujući štrajk glađu ispred DeepMind-a u Londonu. "Why are we sitting here while these people are putting our lives at risk?" he challenges. "Let's go lock their f**cking doors shut." Aktivisti nastavljaju da insistiraju na hitnoj debati o bezbednosti AGI, rastu kompanija i posledicama za zapošljavanje.
