# Dario Amodei
**Entity class:** Person / AI executive
**Maturity:** Developing
## Role in the source
Dario Amodei is Anthropic's chief executive. [[articles/war with empire/The Real No Kings Moment and Who Wrote the Super-intelligence Ban|The Real No Kings Moment]] examines his 13 September 2026 CBS answer about possible governance by “the right combination of governments” and his 12 September essay [*We Must Pace the Frontier*](https://darioamodei.com/post/we-must-pace-the-frontier). The article interprets these as a proposal for shared governmental oversight of frontier intelligence, while acknowledging his stated concern that a single government could also abuse the technology.
The author's disagreement concerns constitutional authorship: which governments, under what authority, with what appeal and exit. It is not a claim that Amodei personally wrote either superintelligence bill or took instructions from Britain.
