Anthropic’s CEO just gave the most important AI interview of 2025.

He revealed shocking truths about artificial super intelligence, the OpenAI rivalry, and why AI is advancing at a pace no one saw coming.

He even called out Zuckerberg.

Here are my top 8 takeaways: 🧵 
1/ “AI” and “AGI” is mostly dopamine, not substance.

Dario says most people obsess over these terms like they’re scoreboards.

But they’re vague, undefined, and mostly distract from real progress.

“AGI” or “ASI”isn’t a milestone it’s just marketing. 
2/ Anthropic will lose $3B this year but Dario isn’t worried about it.

He knows training models is expensive.

But once a model is trained, it earns on its own.

A $100M model from 2023 might bring in $200M+ in 2024.

It’s not loss it’s investment. 
3/ Open-source hype? Dario isn’t buying it.

Everyone’s obsessed with open-source AI.

But Dario says users don’t care about openness they care about results.

If Claude’s better at the task, people will use Claude.

Simple as that. 
4/ At Anthropic, titles aren’t for sale.

Dario says he’s knows about his employees getting huge offers from Zuckerberg’s team.

But Anthropic doesn’t play that game. 

No negotiations. No bidding wars.

You’re assigned a level based on ability, not leverage. 
5/ Anthropic is growing faster than any software company in the world.

But they don't need $100B to compete with OpenAI.

His pitch is to investors simple:

“What others do with $100B, we’ll do with $20B better and faster.” 
6/ Anthropic isn’t chasing consumers it’s betting on businesses.

While Google integrates with Gmail and OpenAI powers ChatGPT.

Anthropic’s focus is different:

Build the best API for enterprise use.

Quietly becoming the backbone of AI in business. 
7/ Scaling AI is easy. Alignment is hard.

More data and compute make models smarter.

But Dario says the real challenge is alignment making sure AI wants to help humans.

That’s why he built Claude.

And why he left OpenAI to do it his way. 
8/ Dario and his family:

Dario says he's deeply grateful for what his parents taught him especially about right and wrong.

And he never imagined his sister would one day become his co-founder.

Now, they're building Anthropic together.

A family legacy in AI. 
Hi I'm Carlo and here's what I think:

Anthropic isn’t just building another chatbot.

They’re building a different kind of company quietly, deliberately, and with conviction.

And they might just be the ones who get AI right.
