Dario Amodei
Dario Amodei is the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, the AI safety company behind Claude. A former VP of Research at OpenAI and co-inventor of Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), he holds a PhD in biophysics from Princeton and has co-authored some of the most cited papers in AI safety and scaling laws. He leads Anthropic — valued at $380 billion as of early 2026 — with the conviction that building safe, interpretable AI is not only compatible with building powerful AI, but inseparable from it. His landmark essay 'Machines of Loving Grace' envisions AI compressing decades of scientific progress into years, potentially eliminating most disease and radically expanding human prosperity.
