European technology companies and government officials have recently made statements questioning that it is “out of self-interest” that some US artificial intelligence companies use security reasons to slow down AI research and development, believing that their real purpose is to consolidate their own advantages and suppress competitors. Recently, a number of US tech entrepreneurs called for slowing down the development of cutting-edge AI technology. Among them, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said in an article that considering security risks, AI companies need to slow down the pace of developing the most advanced models. European AI companies such as France's Mistral Artificial Intelligence Company objected to the American AI companies' proposals. Mistral said in a statement: “Some leading companies in the industry are using the current situation to consolidate their market position and push for the formulation of regulatory rules that favor themselves and suppress competitors.”
