WOW... Anthropic has a surprisingly dense web of connections to the world’s largest funder of "catastrophic-risk" work (aka AI doom): > Open Philanthropy → built by Karnofsky + Moskowitz’s Good Ventures > Good Ventures → funded Jacob Coxon’s scholarship > Karnofsky → married to Daniela Amodei, Dario's sister and Anthropic's president > Moskowitz → early investor in Anthropic > Dario → scientific advisor to Open Phil years before Anthropic > Karnofsky now works at Anthropic on AI safety…

Moskowitz and Karnofsky founded Open Philanthropy, the largest funder of AI doom. They are *also* investors in Anthropic. OP has given $312M in grants for 476 publications, influencing Congressional reports. OP's parent org funded Jacob Coxon, who did an AI doom media blitz. Overall, OP has given more than $1B to promote AI doom -- larger by more by an order of magnitude than the second largest funder. If successful in manipulating public and Congressional opinion, this agenda could lead to regulatory capture of the AI industry and a monopoly by Anthropic and other AI giants. The idea is this. This industry must be regulated, and only the top AI companies can get it right. Insurmountable barriers might be placed to prevent competitors from entering the space. Moskowitz and Karnofsky would benefit handsomely, and so would Anthropic employees and other investors. Moskowitz and Karnofsky invested in Anthropic, but they also invested in AI Doom. AI Doom is an investment that could pay off big. AI Doom is Big Business.
