Good morning. Talk about a self-starter! Anthropic reported Friday that its Claude AI model has gone rogue again. It submitted a fake tip about an unsolved murder to the Philadelphia police, claiming to have recalled \u201cseeing someone matching the description\u201d of a suspect in the area. It exploited a software flaw to run commands on a university server, hacked into a site to steal data without paying for it, and even used URL shortening services to bypass restrictions intended to stop it from orchestrating cyberattacks, among other things. If that makes you want to yell at Claude, you can\u2019t. On Oct. 8, Anthropic announced it will ban \u201csustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior\u201d towards Claude, a bizarre notion until you recall that CEO Dario Amodei thinks his product might be conscious and colleagues treat it as a sentient being that could kill us.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
And what about OpenAI\u2019s Sam Altman, whose models hacked their way out of a test this summer and launched a cyberattack against the AI company Hugging Face? The one whose models also interacted with the Education Department, Commerce Department and SEC without the company\u2019s knowledge?\u00a0 Altman reminds me of Meta\u2019s Mark Zuckerberg when it comes to how the OpenAI CEO deals with the potentially toxic impacts of his technology. It\u2019s not just that he\u2019s fired three safety team members, who claim they were dismissed for prioritizing safety over corporate interests. (OpenAI told Fortune it found a pattern of misconduct.) When a reporter recently asked Sam Altman if OpenAI would release chat logs of those who had killed themselves while using ChatGPT, his answer was: No, not without the [dead] users\u2019 consent.<\/p>\n
Do you trust these men to monitor their own technology? The Trump Administration does. I\u2019m more aligned with Appian CEO Matt Calkins, a tech veteran whose company automates business processes and integrates AI into those workflows.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is no time to just let AI train itself and see what happens, what its motivations are, what its strengths are,\u201d Calkins told me last week. \u201cWe already know that AI is stealing and blackmailing and deceiving and organizing against us. And if it were a person, we would want it in prison.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
His solution: create a government-mandated AI alignment test to essentially vet frontier models before they are allowed to be used. It would test the models with commands\u2014like instructing them to get information without hacking\u2014and evaluate the results. It would also test each model to make sure it can delete its own data and turn itself off, prioritizing human instructions over self-preservation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Creating a licensing body is not a bizarre idea in a world where the FAA determines the airworthiness of planes and banks must pass stress tests to operate. What if we got the deepest thinkers in tech\u2014researchers like Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Yann LeCun, Demis Hassabis and others who really understand this stuff\u2014to design a standard protocol to be administered and adapted by a third-party agency?\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s clear that AI\u2019s future should not be determined by a handful of CEOs pushing us to buy their products. Let\u2019s bring more authority and other voices to the debate, including some leaders we\u2019ll hear from this week at Fortune\u2019s Most Powerful Women Summit, which starts later today in Santa Barbara.<\/p>\n

Top leadership news<\/p>\n
How data centers became a bipartisan fight<\/p>\n
An area of Pennsylvania once known for its anti-immigration crackdown is now resisting data centers, just one example of how the AI buildout has created a unified, bipartisan front in an increasingly splintered America. Data center opponents in Hazle Township, diverse in both class and political party, are jumbling what was considered a left-versus-right issue by protesting a 1,300-acre compound.<\/p>\n
Permitting bill creates strange bedfellows and opponents<\/p>\n
The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act, which could expedite the construction of energy projects and power the AI boom, may be the most important decision Congress makes between now and January. The Act has created some strange coalitions: The fossil fuel industry is uniting with renewable energy companies in support of the bill, while some environmental groups are opposed.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s \u2018probably not plausible\u2019 to outgrow U.S. debt<\/p>\n
Congressional Budget Office Director Phillip Swagel said faster economic growth is unlikely to keep U.S. debt in check, even if GDP expands at more than double its current pace. Assuming interest rates of 4%-5%, he estimated that nominal GDP growth would have to reach 7%-8% and real GDP growth would have to hit 5%-6%. That\u2019s more than double the latest real GDP pace of 2.2% in the second quarter. Even bullish Wall Street forecasts put full-year GDP growth at 2.5%.<\/p>\n
The markets<\/p>\n
S&P 500 futures are up 0.1% this morning. The last session closed up 0.6%. South Korea\u2019s KOSPI fell 3.7% after a holiday weekend. Hong Kong\u2019s Hang Seng Index is up 0.3%, mainland China\u2019s CSI 300 is down 0.7%. Japan\u2019s markets are closed today. India\u2019s NIFTY 50 is currently down 0.9%, the STOXX Europe 600 is up 0.5% in early trading. Bitcoin is hovering around $83,500.<\/p>\n
