Anthropic

Anthropic is an AI research and safety company founded in January 2021 by siblings Dario and Daniela Amodei, both former OpenAI executives. It operates as a Public Benefit Corporation and develops the Claude family of large language models, with Claude 3.5 Sonnet released in June 2024 achieving state-of-the-art results on graduate-level reasoning (GPQA) and coding benchmarks. The company introduced Constitutional AI, a training methodology documented in a December 2022 paper that uses a set of principles to govern model behavior without extensive human feedback. As of early 2024, Anthropic has secured a total of $2 billion in committed investment from Google and up to $8 billion from Amazon. It also published a formal Responsible Scaling Policy in September 2023, outlining risk thresholds and safety procedures. Anthropic matters because it directly competes with OpenAI and Google at the frontier of AI capability while anchoring its corporate structure and research agenda to long-term safety commitments, shaping both market dynamics and regulatory discussions.
