Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) creator Vitalik Buterin encouraged AI company Anthropic on Tuesday to stick to its position on autonomous weapons and mass surveillance, even at a cost.
Buterin Wants Anthropic To Respect The ‘Red Lines’
In an X post, Buterin praised Anthropic for barring its technology from being used for mass surveillance of Americans or the development of fully autonomous weapons, which he describes as the “two red lines.”
“It will significantly increase my opinion of Anthropic if they do not back down and honorably eat the consequences,” the cryptocurrency mogul said.
Buterin defended Anthropic, calling their stance “conservative and limited,” and far from being anti-military.
