AI extinction probability debate flares online: whistleblowing or fear marketing

A debate among researchers over the probability that AI could cause human extinction is spreading online, Axios reported on Tuesday. The dispute intensified after Jacob Koxon, who worked at OpenAI and then Anthropic, posted a resignation statement that drew more than 110 million views on X. Evan Hubinger of Anthropic said he believes AI could kill all humans and put the 10-year extinction risk above 10 percent.
