We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so. Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.

Jeff Bezos: "If I do my job right, the value to society and civilization from my for-profit companies will be much, much larger than the good that I do with my charitable giving."

MrBeast just gave one of the strongest endorsements possible for Starlink: “I will only book flights exclusively on planes with Starlink. I don’t care if it means an extra layover - I’ll sit in the back of the plane if it gives me Starlink.” He says Starlink has become the backbone of his global productions and travels because it works in places where traditional internet simply doesn’t exist: • Filming in Antarctica - one of the only reliable ways to stay connected • Building wells deep in rural Africa with full internet access hours away from cities • Driving through remote villages and open fields with a Starlink dish mounted on the vehicle while maintaining signal the entire time He described it as: “Starlink is literally magic. It makes no sense.” Now people are actively choosing flights based on whether the plane has Starlink onboard

It’s no secret that we intend to launch Starship a lot, targeting thousands of flights per year. That cadence will require the ability to launch from many different locations, so we are constantly exploring to find viable sites to expand Starship operations in the future, both domestically and internationally
