Daniela Amodei, president and co-founder of Anthropic, has been promoting the company’s new “Claude for Teachers” tool, which provides free access to Claude Pro for K-12 educators. Amodei stated that the tool is designed to assist with administrative tasks and curriculum development, and that it is not intended for direct use by students under 18, citing uncertainty about AI’s impact on developing brains. She described Claude as a “partner” for teachers rather than a replacement for their judgment. In interviews, Amodei discussed Anthropic’s focus on enterprise and productive use cases, contrasting its consumer product with competitors’ entertainment-oriented offerings. She addressed the company’s approach to compute infrastructure, saying Anthropic aims to avoid overextending itself by committing to more compute than it can productively use. Amodei also commented on AI’s effect on employment, stating that current research shows AI is predominantly supplementing rather than replacing human labor, and that skills such as communication, empathy, and flexibility remain valuable for young workers. She reiterated Anthropic’s commitment to safety and ethics, citing the company’s use of “constitutional AI” to align models with human values.
