| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | If we don’t understand those, I don’t know how we can build them. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |

| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | What I’d rather do is have a thread running from long term to short term things where you identify what the fundamental problems are. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | It’d be extremely illegal. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |

| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | This works on the reward hacking, scalable supervision side of things. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | I get pretty nervous when we don’t have a strong background in machine learning because even if they think that a machine learning system… Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | I think we better understand the principles by which the system operates. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | Someone could sabotage a self-driving car with adversarial examples. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | I think those efforts have been successful and so I feel like it’s been good to cause things to happen that wouldn’t have caused otherwise. Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
| Not checkable | Dario Amodei | Not checkable | 13 Oct 2025 | I think generally our view of AI works and what to build in AI and the focus on safety are actually pretty similar between the two… Dario Amodei · Not checkable · 13 Oct 2025 | |
