AI safety regulation debate intensifies as Anthropic says AI systems moving towards building themselves

San Francisco, Sep 18 (UNI) The debate over the risks posed by artificial intelligence has intensified in recent months, fuelled by a series of incidents and increasingly stark warnings from people working in the industry.
This comes as Anthropic reported that its Claude chatbot is now leading 26% of the company's model research and development work. Anthropic said this means Claude can complete most of a given task "end-to-end from a high-level prompt" while remaining under human supervision. The model is not yet operating fully autonomously.
Around 90% of Anthropic's research and development work is now carried out in "collaboration" with Claude, meaning the model can handle "large chunks of work under close human direction", according to the company.
