- Anthropic and OpenAI executives are privately gaming out "day after" scenarios for a public and political revolt following a catastrophic AI event.
- The most likely catastrophic scenario these officials anticipate is a large-scale cyberattack that would shut down access to financial services.
Why it matters: These executives are privately drafting crisis-response playbooks for a catastrophic AI event — most likely a cyberattack on financial services — without public disclosure. That Anthropic and OpenAI leaders are running this exercise behind closed doors means the public will see the response plan only after a disaster, with no input on its design.
