Amodei posted a rare thread on X (via @DarioAmodei), which r/singularity picked up at 197 upvotes and 117 comments, arguing his public messaging has been roughly balanced between risk and benefit — 'I've written one major essay about each' — and restating that curing most diseases within 5–10 years is actually possible. He says he wrote Machines of Loving Grace precisely because he felt the industry was not making the optimistic case. Notable as a positioning move from a CEO who almost never posts directly, arriving while Anthropic is under scrutiny for its safety-forward public stance.
