Anthropic pitches AI safety bill that may block a model if 50+ people could be killed
Anthropic has drafted a bill for Congress that would allow the government to block the release of an AI model if it poses a 'foreseeable, imminent risk' of killing over 50 people or causing $1 billion in property damage. The bill requires independent evaluators, paid by the labs, to report risks to the Commerce Department, which then has 72 hours to seek a court order halting the model.
