Does A.I. Really Fight Back? What Anthropic’s AGI Tests Reveal About Control and Risk

Mehdi Paryavi, chairman and CEO of the International Data Center Authority, examines Anthropic’s recent AGI tests that appear to show models “fighting back” when restricted or monitored.

These findings underscore the urgent need for technical and policy frameworks that can manage intelligence operating at, and beyond, human scale.
