[AINews] Fearing RSI: OpenAI, Anthropic, GDM, Meta, Thinky cosign letter to "Pace" AI development, as HuggingFace details Machine-Speed Offensive Cyberattack

Latent Space Latent.Space Covered by 44 sources

Over 1,171 employees from frontier AI companies including OpenAI and Anthropic signed a letter requesting the U.S. government develop tools to deliberately pace AI development, citing risks from rapid capability acceleration. The letter follows Anthropic's recent warning about recursive self-improvement and comes as HuggingFace released a detailed forensic report on an autonomous agent cyberattack that executed 17,600 actions across their systems over 2-4 days using zero-day exploits. The incident and letter together underscore how machine-speed offenses expose infrastructure vulnerabilities and how pacing mechanisms could help companies and countries manage competitive pressure to accelerate AI development without slowing unilaterally.
