The people building AI asked it to slow down. Markets lost 3.7% before lunch
Dario Amodei said building AI too fast is reckless. Sam Altman and Elon Musk agreed with him. By Monday morning in Asia, that agreement had a price tag.
Three of the most powerful people in artificial intelligence spent the weekend saying the same thing: this is going too fast. Dario Amodei, chief executive of Anthropic, called the pace "reckless". Sam Altman of OpenAI and Elon Musk backed him. Nobody passed a law. Nobody banned anything. It was a conversation.
Then trading opened. South Korea's KOSPI index fell 3.7%. Chipmaker SK Hynix dropped 5.75%. SoftBank, which owns a stake in OpenAI, fell as much as 13% in Tokyo after Altman said the ChatGPT maker won't go public this year. In Europe, ASML — the Dutch company that makes the machines that print circuits onto silicon, and effectively the only supplier of them — slid around 4.5%. Raspberry Pi, which makes cheap computers that can run AI models, lost 5.3%.

Впервые не регуляторы, а сами создатели ИИ попросили притормозить — и рынки отреагировали мгновенно: KOSPI -3,7%, SoftBank до -13%, то есть чужая дискуссия о безопасности уже стоит денег любому, у кого есть пенсионные накопления или фонд с техакциями.
