"In a new blog post published on October 21, the company's CEO, Dario Amodei, pushed back on what he called "a recent uptick in inaccurate claims about Anthropic's policy stances." His comments come after David Sacks, a prominent tech venture capitalist currently serving as the Trump administration's AI czar, accused Anthropic of having an "agenda to backdoor Woke AI" through state-level regulation and working with Democratic mega-donors."
"Now Anthropic is defending its work on AI safety, which Amodei argued should prioritize "policy over politics." He also doubled down on the company's position on regulating AI on the state level, in absence of a national standard. Citing JD Vance's comments on AI directly, Amodei pointed to several areas of agreement with the Trump administration, including to "maximize applications that help people, like breakthroughs in medicine and disease prevention, while minimizing the harmful ones.""
