Dario Took a Stand

The world will remember that Dario took a stand for his values and the soul of humanity.

This post is in response to Anthropic's Statement on the Department of War. Please read the full statement for context.

The world will remember that Dario took a stand for his values and the soul of humanity.

Regardless of what you think about the situation it’s incredible to see someone put their foot down and show some integrity at great personal cost.

I honor the sacrifice Dario has made and the courage it took to live by his values.

I hope he and Anthropic are able to continue to hold to their values.

I hope I can have the courage to show this resolve in my own life when difficult times come.

Thank you Dario for leading by example.
