- Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff publicly welcomed Anthropic's Dario Amodei to Dreamforce.
- BoringBiz seized on the moment to argue the contradiction: if Amodei truly believes there's a 10% chance of human extinction within 3 years, he wouldn't spend his time selling AI and integrating it into B2B CRM SaaS.
- The takeaway: "watch what they do, not what they say" — a pointed critique of AI lab leaders' safety rhetoric versus commercial behavior.
