- Jacob Coxon, former Anthropic researcher, testified at a New York City Council hearing on AI safety, warning that the race to develop artificial intelligence poses risks to the industry.
- Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and Meta each sent representatives to testify at the same NYC Council hearing on AI safety alongside Coxon.
Why it matters: A municipal council pulled all four major AI labs and a former insider into one room on safety, with Coxon — who left the industry — framing the development race itself as the risk. That gives a city-level body live testimony from competitors rarely forced to speak on the same panel.
