Responses to the proposal

Theo reads Altman’s statement and notes Musk’s response to Amodei’s proposal. He interprets the support as an opportunity to act.

Altman’s response to Amodei
FOLIE 1 / 2Altman’s response to AmodeiThe displayed post describes support for independent evaluators with employee-like access.
Musk’s response
FOLIE 2 / 2Musk’s responseThe displayed post expresses support for Amodei’s proposal.

Sam Altman says he agrees with Dario Amodei that frontier AI development needs to be paced, and that the topic has been discussed at OpenAI. In the statement shown, he calls independent evaluators with employee-like access a good idea and says OpenAI will do the same, with more details to come.

Elon Musk also responds in support of Amodei. I see this as a rare moment of alignment that we should take advantage of. These are public statements of support and intent; the clip does not show that the proposed evaluation arrangements are already in place.
