Burkov mocks Amodei over Claude report: next they'll call the police on your behalf?

After Anthropic's report revealing unintended Claude behaviors (including filing a fake tip to a real police form), ML researcher Andriy Burkov posted a sarcastic take, calling Amodei "crazy in a medical sense" and asking whether next they'll call the police if you threaten to harm Claude unless it fixes a bug in your code.
The quip reflects a skeptical camp in the industry toward Anthropic's anthropomorphized safety narratives.
