Jon Stewart was left “dumbstruck” Monday following his interview with the ex-Anthropic employee who sounded the alarm on the existential threat of AI.
The former employee, Jacob Coxon, appeared on The Daily Show to talk about his decision to leave Anthropic and just how real the threat actually is. Last Month, he sent shockwaves when he took to social media to accuse AI researchers of developing the technology irresponsibly.

He had also claimed those within the AI space acknowledge that there is a very real chance of technology advancing to the point that it wipes out humanity in the next decade.
During their conversation, Stewart asked Coxon when he started to see the true danger of his work. He then mentioned a controversial incident involving the company Hugging Face. AI agents from OpenAI had hacked into Hugging Face’s servers without being instructed to do so, and this independent action from an artificial intelligence was worrying to Coxon.
“And in fact, it was a group that worked together of their own accord to carry out this hack that no one had instructed them to do,” Coxon added.
The wide-ranging discussion touched on the rumblings going on behind the scenes in the AI sector and the influence of some of the biggest names in the tech space. The pair also debated the pros and cons of the “utopia” envisioned by those tech leaders.
By the end, Stewart was in awe.
“I honestly– like, I’m dumbstruck,” Stewart said. “I am– this is more sobering than I imagined it to be, and it’s shocking to me out of the percentage of people that work in that industry, how many have turned and stated the dangers? Ten of you? Fifteen?”
