Good Zvi dissection of recent (bizarre) interview with Anthropic CEO Amodei, rightly calling him out for retroactively changing predictions, while pretending he didn't, and for he and host Dwarkesh ignoring minor things like catastrophic risk. As I said previously, a deeply strange interview, but Zvi analyses it in detail, so worth reading.
