Anthropic CEO apologises for leaked memo criticising Trump, calls it an ‘out-of-date assessment’
The CEO of Anthropic, Dario Amodei, has apologised for a leaked internal memo criticising US President Donald Trump, saying it does not represent his current views. “The leaked memo does not reflect my careful or considered views and is an out-of-date assessment of the current situation,” he told reporters.
Before speaking to the media, Amodei had already issued an apology in a blog post about the company’s ongoing discussions with the Department of War.
“I also want to apologize directly for a post internal to the company that was leaked to the press yesterday. Anthropic did not leak this post nor direct anyone else to do so – it is not in our interest to escalate this situation,” the blog said.
