Michael Burry Blasts OpenAI, Anthropic CEOs Over Calls to Slow AI Development

Burry's critique reframes the AI-safety debate as a competitive manoeuvre rather than a principled one, which matters for how the sector's most prominent labs are perceived as they court public markets. His claim that slowdown rhetoric masks weakening growth and delayed listings cuts at the credibility of the incumbents' positioning, not just their technology. The open question is whether this becomes a durable line of scepticism that follows AI names into their eventual listings, or fades as a lone investor's provocation.
