The Trump White House Is Over Anthropic's Dario Amodei
Amodei, the people say, was too difficult to talk to and did not listen to their concerns.The talks have been both at the high level and at the working-group level, involving technical staff from both sides. Some of the conversations have been about trying to establish what level of proof from Anthropic’s side might alleviate the administration’s concerns about jailbreaks of Fable 5, the people say.As Inner Loop previously noted, part of the challenge for both sides is on a conceptual level. Independent cybersecurity experts have increasingly taken the view that guardrails on AI models are only a stopgap, since skilled users and future AI models will find ways to bypass constraints.A White House spokesperson declined to comment on the matter.
