CoinWorld News, on February 25, Vitalik Buterin posted in support of AI company Anthropic's adherence to two ethical bottom lines: "not developing fully autonomous weapons" and "not engaging in large-scale surveillance in the United States," praising their determination to withstand government pressure. Vitalik believes that in an ideal world, such high-risk applications should be limited to open-source LLM access levels (i.e., accessible to everyone equally); even achieving only 10% progress could reduce the risks of autonomous weapons and privacy violations, promoting safer AI development. Previously, reports indicated that the Pentagon recently threatened to cut off cooperation with Anthropic, potentially resulting in a loss of a $200 million contract, because Anthropic refused to provide AI technology for military use without human intervention.
