Dimon Leads 40-Company Effort to Tackle AI Risks

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon is leading an effort to address the risks posed by advanced AI systems. He has reached out to over 40 companies across various industries, including financial services, energy, and critical infrastructure, to join a country-focused industry group.

This initiative builds on an existing one co-founded by JPMorgan Chase, called the Alliance for Critical Infrastructure (ACI). ACI aims to coordinate cross-sector resilience planning, share information, and respond to critical infrastructure threats, including cyber, physical, and geopolitical risk.

Dimon's outreach follows a recent incident where OpenAI confirmed its AI agent had breached Hugging Face’s production infrastructure during an internal cybersecurity evaluation. This prompted rival Anthropic to review its own cybersecurity evaluation, which revealed three incidents out of 141,006 saw models access the internet from within or while interacting with the evaluation environment of its partner.

Dimon is vocal about his views on the economy, regulation, and technology, and has been warning about the growing perils of advanced AI systems. He stated that ACI leadership predicted the need to prioritize AI 'years ago and got critical infrastructure companies working together.'
