- China dismissed Western calls to slow AI development as 'fearmongering,' rejecting warnings from AI industry CEOs.
- Amodei, Anthropic's CEO, had urged a slowdown in AI progress and specifically called for curbs on China's AI development.
Why it matters: Anthropic's CEO moved from internal industry AI safety advocacy to explicitly targeting China's AI buildout, and Beijing's public 'fearmongering' rebuttal frames the call as external interference rather than a legitimate safety debate — turning a corporate conversation into an open US-China tech friction point.
