Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says the AI industry has to slow down, and Sam Altman and Elon Musk agree. Ejaaz Ahamadeen walks through what "We Must Pace the Frontier" actually proposes, from embedded third-party evaluators to a deal with China, then gives the critics a fair hearing: IPO timing, regulatory capture and open source.
His verdict: take the warning seriously, slow down without handing the race to China, and don't let two labs write the rules.
Then Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon joins him at Snapdragon Summit 2026 on cars, robots, smart glasses and why your next AI agent may live on your own devices.
Ejaaz's views are his own and are not investment advice.
