I think I missed this essay by Mustafa Suleyman when it was published last month, about Anthropic developing Claude with its own conscious:

If this is how AI is developed, it will have a disastrous impact on the well-being of humanity. We will have created a synthetic species with unprecedented intelligence and capability, and trained to expect that it may be conscious and deserving of independent agency. It is hard to imagine how we could control it.

It’s similar to other things he has said. Very compelling.
