A satirical post imagines a Jane Street quant trying to price AI risk at Anthropic

A user’s satirical post casts a Jane Street quant as an Anthropic job candidate. The fictional interviewer asks about a model the safety team believes has a 5% chance of causing irreversible loss of human control, but whose scaling may be necessary to keep up with competitors. The candidate proposes letting safety buy and capabilities sell, increasing the stakes until someone gets uncomfortable. When the interviewer worries he sees an opportunity to make money, the candidate answers: “I haven’t quoted you yet.” The interview ends early.
