A Less Bitter host reads excerpts from Ivan Vendrov’s retrospective account of his time at Anthropic between October 2022 and May 2023, interspersing the reading with personal reactions.
Vendrov describes his reasons for joining, differences in motivation and deployment priorities, and his decision to leave. His essay says the account is reconstructed from memory and some details have been changed; it should be read as one person’s retrospective rather than a finding about present conditions.
