[Europeans Question US Companies' Proposal to Slow Down AI R&D as "Self-Interested"] European tech companies and government officials have recently expressed their doubts about some US artificial intelligence (AI) companies' proposal to slow down AI R&D under the guise of security, arguing that it is "self-interested" and that their true purpose is to consolidate their own advantages and suppress competitors. Recently, several US tech entrepreneurs called for a slowdown in the development of cutting-edge AI technologies. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, stated in an article that AI companies need to slow down the pace of developing state-of-the-art models given security risks. European AI companies, including the French company Mistral AI, have expressed their opposition to the proposal from US AI companies. Mistral stated in a statement: "Some industry leaders are using the current situation to consolidate their market position and push for regulations that are biased towards themselves and suppress competitors."
