# I Agree With the Warning That the AI Industry Is Moving Too Fast by Dario Amodei
> “It's funny. I agree with [Jacob Coxon's warning that the AI industry is moving too fast] much more than I disagree with him.”
> **— Dario Amodei**, *public statement, September 2026*
## Sources and Context
- **Timecoded episode recording:** [*The Ezra Klein Show* at 15:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjZ90V_JREk&t=910s) — the episode reproduces Amodei's opening sentence immediately before introducing Evan Hubinger's separate written statement.
- **Complete recorded context:** [CNN transcript, September 14, 2026](https://transcripts.cnn.com/show/ampr/date/2026-09-14/segment/01) — Amodei explains that Coxon regarded Anthropic as the more responsible laboratory and was criticizing “the dynamic of the industry as a whole moving too fast.”
- **Reconciled source dossier:** [[research/Why Are We Sprinting Off the AI Cliff - Ezra Klein on Recursive Self-Improvement|Why Are We Sprinting Off the AI Cliff?]] — preserves the corrected speaker boundary and broadcast order.
- **Exact original excerpt:** “It's funny. I agree with Jacob much more than I disagree with him.”
- **Editorial treatment:** The square-bracketed phrase replaces the context-dependent first name with the specific warning Amodei identifies in his complete recorded answer. The original words before and after the insertion remain unchanged.
- **Context:** Amodei agreed substantially with Coxon's warning about industry-wide acceleration while disputing the implication that Coxon had singled out Anthropic as uniquely irresponsible.
