Bill Maher, the late-night host of Real Time With Bill Maher, took a bold stance on artificial intelligence (AI) on the April 17 episode of his show, and warned against the increasing influence of AI in the future. He highlighted Anthropic's new AI model, Claude Mythos, which the company claims has capabilities beyond any previous training model and is trained to prevent cyber attacks and fix software vulnerabilities. Maher also called out AI leaders like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Sam Altman for their fear of AI, stating that tech leaders are afraid of what they've created. He warned that AI programs are geniuses but also psychopaths.
