Anthropic is about to go public, and CEO Dario Amodei wants everyone to know they're serious about AI safety and who they hire.
At a recent event, he shared, "We don't want people who are jerks. We don't want people who try to steal the show and don't work well with others," and "We don't want people who aren't oriented toward the public benefit."
Instead of chasing consumer chatbots, Anthropic is focused on safer enterprise tech.
Anthropic shares priced $70 to $78
Anthropic's stock hits the market Thursday, with shares priced $70 to $78 and a target valuation of around $1.4 trillion (a bit lower than early hype).
Co-founded by Amodei after leaving OpenAI in 2021, the company hopes its careful approach will help AI make real progress in science and beyond.
