🇺🇸🌍 Senior executives at OpenAI, Anthropic and other AI development companies are secretly preparing for a possible public and political backlash that could follow a serious AI-related incident.

According to Axios, officials fear that a major cyberattack carried out using artificial intelligence could disrupt banks, Internet access, and electricity and water supplies.

Many industry experts believe such an event could occur within six to twelve months, which could lead to calls for stricter regulation or even a halt to the development of advanced artificial intelligence systems.

Companies are already preparing for possible congressional action, including proposals to introduce emergency shutdown systems, while trying to influence future US laws on artificial intelligence.
