Pirate Wires: ex-Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon's AI-doom media tour was PR-orchestrated
Kyrannio · x · 2026-09-25
Pirate Wires reports that Jacob Coxon, the former Anthropic researcher who became a media superstar with his AI fears, had insisted he wasn't working with any third party. Sources say DEY., a PR firm representing prominent AI safetyists including Eliezer Yudkowsky, was booking his interviews — and preemptively booked MIRI's Nate Soares for interviews timed with Coxon's debut. The outlet argues the public deserves to know who shapes the AI regulatory conversation. Claims are unverified and the outlet has a clear slant.
