“But when I read Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom in around 2016, it really became real for me where he just describes how hard it will be to make sure that an AI system trained with the kinds of optimization techniques that we had at the time would be anywhere near aligned, would even understand our values at all.”

“The first one I mentioned before, Replacing Guilt by Nate Soares. Love that one. The second one is Good Strategy Bad Strategy by Richard Rumelt. Just thinking about in a very clear way, how do you build product? It's one of the best strategy books I've read and strategy is a hard word to even think about in many ways. And then the last one is The Alignment Problem by Brian Christian. Just really thoughtfully goes through what is this problem that we care about that we're trying to solve here? What are the stakes in a version that's more updated and easier to read and digest than superintelligence?”

“I work on product at Anthropic and product engineering, and we build things like Claude Code and Model Context Protocol, and a lot of the other stuff that people use every day. And that's really important because without an economic engine for our company to work on, and without being in people's hands all over the world, we won't have the mind policy influence and revenue to fund our future safety research and have the kind of influence that we need to have.”
