Ex-Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon to testify at New York City AI hearing

Former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon will testify at a New York City Council hearing on artificial intelligence requested by Speaker Julie Menin.

Coxon quit Anthropic last month after issuing public warnings about extreme safety risks associated with advanced AI model development.

Lawmakers are considering a package of bills aimed at establishing legislative safeguards around artificial intelligence technologies.
