Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei. Although Anthropic collaborates with the National Security Agency and the Department of Defense, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has emerged as a leading voice in AI safety and regulation. However, unlike his peers, his approach included warnings about the dangers of letting the Trump administration control advanced AI. According to the WSJ’s sources, Sacks took Anthropic hiring three Biden administration officials as a sign the company would not align with Sacks’ agenda. Sacks views Anthropic as part of a group of “AI doomers” who are slowing down progress with regulation, according to the WSJ.
