The Biggest Moments from the 2025 TIME100 Dinner in Davos

Leaders from across the world of business, technology, policy, and entertainment gathered at the TIME100 Davos Dinner as the World Economic Forum's 55th annual meeting kicked off on Jan. 20. In keeping with this year's annual meeting theme "Collaboration for the Intelligent Age," Dario Amodei, CEO and co-founder of AI company Anthropic, joined TIME editor-in-chief Sam Jacobs on stage to talk about the future of AI. Discussing what Amodei calls powerful AI, which he prefers over Artificial General Intelligence because of the latter's connotations with science fiction, the CEO emphasized the importance of understanding the reality of the technology's potential. "We have to be very serious about when this actually happens, what is possible and what exists. What are the bounds that are provided by physics, by the limits in human institutions, what's left after we consider those," he said.
