Ex-Anthropic researcher Blanche Minerva rebuts 'full of lies' article about Claude
BlancheMinerva · x · 2026-10-20
Former Anthropic researcher Blanche Minerva publicly rebutted a controversial article about Claude (citing Kelsey Tuoc and Aaron Sibarium), arguing it was 'full of lies and misrepresentations': it mischaracterized Claude's behavior, misrepresented what Carlsmith wrote in his paper, and framed normal actions like checking local laws as red flags. She added that treating conversations with potentially law-breaking users as scandalous is 'low on the list' compared to worse things at other AI companies—a rare direct response from the Anthropic side in this safety-culture controversy.
