Anthropic CEO Amodei Amodei has almost zero people-management load, Google yesterday announced that its now freeing Demis Hassabis from daily operations.
Maybe AI’s best minds are most valuable this way.
Dario Amodei has only 1 direct report, his chief of staff.
The rest of Anthropic’s executive system flows through Dario’s sister, Anthropic President Daniela Amodei, who handles daily operations and reports to the board.
For some comparison, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has around half a dozen direct reports and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has 60 people reporting to him.

Rohan Paul (@rohanpaul_ai): So Google just announced some major changes in DeepMind’s leadership.
Demis Hassabis will become Chair of Google DeepMind and Alphabet’s Chief Scientist, leaving daily management while continuing to advise its models and research.
Basically it gives Hassabis more time for AGI
