Progress will still seem fast, and we must make wise use of the time we gain.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He then lays out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8230;<em>a three-step plan with the goal of&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacingthefrontier.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>pacing the frontier<\/em><\/a><em>: building AI at a balanced rate that aims to ensure its safety while still achieving its benefits and grappling with important geopolitical dilemmas.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although this is quite a public change coming from one of the people at the forefront of AI development, there has been a groundswell of \u201crisk versus reward\u201d commentary coming from other figures in the industry recently.&nbsp; Last week, in <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hilbertspaess\/status\/2097476196791709843?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">a post that went viral<\/a>, Jacob Coxon, a recently resigned researcher at both OpenAI and Anthropic, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/science\/articles\/exactly-ai-kill-us-experts-205230277.html\">outlined his concerns<\/a> with the new technology, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Um, that doesn\u2019t sound good.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus, many were relieved to learn of such a visible industry leader\u2019s desire to tap the brakes, even if doing so might have some undesirable side effects for related companies and even the economy as a whole.&nbsp; Certainly, the stock market has benefitted tremendously since the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, particularly the shares of hyperscalers, semiconductors, and other suppliers to the AI buildout that has proceeded apace since then.&nbsp; It is even fair to say that the entire US economy, along with those of some other countries at the technological forefront, has gotten a notable boost from the data center boom.&nbsp; Yet stocks, even at their worst, never fully gave back Friday\u2019s rally \u2013 the one that ensued despite (?) or because of (?) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/traders-insight\/ibkr-market-insights\/it-didnt-or-doesnt-matter\/\">a higher CPI print<\/a>.&nbsp; Here\u2019s why&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is also a self-serving aspect to Amodei&#8217;s essay. &nbsp;A slowdown in AI development could slow the expensive race to build capacity while entrenching the already established leaders at the expense of new competitors &#8211; including those from China. &nbsp;Other key leaders in artificial intelligence, like SpaceXAi\u2019s Elon Musk, OpenAI\u2019s Sam Altman, and Google DeepMind\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bing.com\/ck\/a?!&amp;&amp;p=9e4e03d172ebc8764c50bf22e53970ebf617e461d5d3272942615cab506f586dJmltdHM9MTc4OTM0NDAwMA&amp;ptn=3&amp;ver=2&amp;hsh=4&amp;fclid=1e9ffdd7-b3c6-62a0-1d01-eb51b2506341&amp;psq=alphabet+ai+chief+reaction+to+amodei&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGluZHVzdGFudGltZXMuY29tL3dvcmxkLW5ld3MvYWZ0ZXItbXVzay1hbmQtYWx0bWFuLWdvb2dsZS1kZWVwbWluZC1mb3VuZGVyLWJhY2tzLWFudGhyb3BpYy1jZW8tZGFyaW8tYW1vZGVpLWFtaWQtYWxhcm0tb3Zlci1haS0xMDE3ODkyNzE0ODc4MDcuaHRtbA\">Demis Hassabis<\/a>, put out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2026\/09\/12\/anthropic-ceo-dario-amodei-seeks-immediate-slowdown-artificial-intelligence-01073519\">statements supporting<\/a> Amodei\u2019s call for caution.&nbsp; While it would be nice to think that seemingly vicious competitors all saw the light in rapid succession, it is not unreasonable to think that they also perceived the commercial benefits of slowing the incredibly rapid, if not unsustainable, pace of debt- and equity-funded spending.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can debate whether these leaders have a greater debt to society or to their shareholders, but I am quite sure that they don\u2019t mind when those two sometimes-conflicting interests neatly coincide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Attention to the potential risks is also a shrewd political move right now.&nbsp; There is a clear political backlash against AI data centers facing many of those on the campaign trail, and when we can find an event pushing human-controlled AI that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2026\/09\/14\/coxon-bernie-bannon-unite-human-ai\">features the stupefying paring<\/a> of Senator Bernie Sanders and former Trump advisor Steve Bannon, we know that there are some deep political nerves being hit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of strange bedfellows, major equity indices have recovered about two-thirds of their worst intraday losses by midday, led by an odd mix of sectors.&nbsp; We have defensive sectors like healthcare and consumer staples trailing only communications among the relatively few advancing groups.&nbsp; Part of the reason for the bouncing indexes can be attributed to what seemed all along like a market that was unwilling to mount a real selloff.&nbsp; Traders remain conditioned to see dips as buying opportunities, which was evident in the relatively tame pre-opening drop in pre-market futures despite higher oil futures and ominous sounding tech news.&nbsp;&nbsp; Equity selling mounted as bond yields rose, culminating with the 10-year\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/video\/2026\/09\/01\/interactive-brokersa-steve-sosnick-on-why-5-percent-on-treasury-yield-seems-inevitable.html?&amp;qsearchterm=sosnick\">seemingly inevitable<\/a> assault on the 5% level, and then recovering when the bond market\u2019s own set of dip buyers stepped in, causing yields to quickly reverse from a peak of 5.01% to about 4.95% \u2013 a 2-basis-point improvement over Friday\u2019s close.&nbsp; Equity markets remain focused on the positives, even when revelatory comments about the key technology initially seem to indicate otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
