Microsoft says ‘people matter more than AI’ following safety concerns

Microsoft is publishing a 37-page 'humanist AI code of conduct' to emphasize the importance of human values in AI development, following growing concerns over the rapid progress of AI models. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has called for a coordinated slow down of AI development, warning that AI model progress is outpacing our ability to safely deploy complex systems and verify their safety. Microsoft's code of conduct aims to promote responsible AI development and ensure that human values are prioritized in the design and deployment of AI systems.
