Mrinank Sharma and Anthropic

It is 9th February 2026. Today is Mrinank’s last day in Anthropic. He resigns as the Head of AI Safety at Anthropic. He shares his resignation letter in a X-post explaining his decision. I think he was unhappy with what was going on in the world of AI. He wishes to pursue PhD in Poetry.

Even Geoffrey Hinton, who is called the Godfather of AI, left Google in the year 2023 to freely speak out about the serious risks posed by artificial intelligence (AI).
