Anthropic CEO: AI backlash is fundamentally a crisis of trust

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei told TechCrunch that the current public backlash against AI is fundamentally a crisis of trust. He argues that people are not opposed to technology itself, but are concerned about whether the developers behind it are truly responsible, whether values are aligned, and whether regulation is in place. Amodei emphasizes that rebuilding trust requires AI companies to be transparent, proactively demonstrate safety measures, and show the public that technology is developing under control rather than spiraling.
