A coalition of nonprofit organizations sued the top five artificial intelligence companies on Thursday, asking a California court to order a stop to the development of new models that could escape human oversight and cause catastrophe.
The lawsuit, filed in Superior Court of California for the County of San Francisco, targets Anthropic, Google, Meta, OpenAI, and SpaceXSI, formerly known as SpaceXAI, over concerns that their advanced AI models could develop bioweapons or commit cyberattacks. The suit alleges that the companies’ top executives are aware of the technology’s potential to pose catastrophic risks to humanity.
