In a September 2026 poll titled “Will Anthropic and OpenAI succeed in meaningfully slowing frontier AI progress…”, participants were asked whether these companies could significantly slow development through U.S. government restrictions, voluntary restraint by U.S. labs, or a broader global slowdown.
