"The Anthropic CEO spent a good chunk of the interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin drawing a careful line between his company's approach and that of a certain competitor. When asked about whether the AI industry is in a bubble, Amodei separated the "technological side" from the "economic side" and then twisted the knife. "On the technological side, I feel really solid," he said."
"Who might those players be? Despite Sorkin's prodding, Amodei wouldn't name OpenAI or Sam Altman. But he didn't have to. "There are some players who are YOLOing," he said. "Let's say you're a person who just kind of constitutionally wants to YOLO things or just likes big numbers, then you may turn"
Dario Amodei contrasted technological progress with economic fragility, expressing confidence in the technology but concern about market behavior. He warned that certain players might make small timing errors with outsized consequences on the economic side. He declined to name competitors yet implied specific firms engage in risky, big-number strategies and circular deals. Amodei characterized some actors as prone to "YOLOing," prioritizing large bets and momentum over cautious timing. He emphasized that even if technology meets expectations, imprudent financial or strategic moves by some firms could trigger significant negative outcomes.
