There’s a new clip going around of Dario Amodei making the case for Anthropic:
We look at things like cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, mental illness… These will be relics of the past in, I think, less than a decade. And I believe the company that gets the risks right will also be the company that has the license to operate — that society trusts, and society believes can build the benefits in the right way.
This is the most compelling justification for Anthropic’s approach that I’ve seen. But I’m not convinced it will play out that way for trust… Too much doom and gloom will lead to users not trusting any company.
