New Warnings About the Risks of AI to Humanity; Diesel Hits New High of $6.23 Per Gallon

New warnings from within the artificial intelligence industry have revived a long-running debate over whether advanced AI could escape human control and ultimately threaten humanity’s survival, and whether the companies developing the technology are doing enough to prevent that scenario.

Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, the San Francisco company behind Claude, said on Saturday that the industry needed to slow down, warning that a swarm of AI agents might take over the internet in six months to a year unless companies devoted more time to building safeguards.

The national average price of diesel climbed to a fresh record of $6.23 per gallon on Monday as President Donald Trump once again called on Ukraine to stop striking Russian refineries, saying the attacks were worsening a global fuel shortage.

That was up from $6.20 the previous day and $5.90 a week earlier, according to the American Automobile Association.
