I was probably one of the last to apply for cohort 1. Do not let this chance slip by. Apply. @gauntletai is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.

Officially accepted the first few people for Gauntlet AI Cohort 2 today. Many more coming over weekend/Monday. Thousands of applications to sift through. If you haven’t applied… this is your call to do so.

Not to retweet an organ of the Russian state, but what a gift to future historians. The coinage that bears the sitting leaders face for the first time in the republic’s history is a great touch point for understanding when the rot went terminal.

Everything about Alpha School is impressive, but I was just absolutely floored by how quickly I just saw middle schoolers transition from fully free time to quiet independent work.

We invited Claude users to share how they use AI, what they dream it could make possible, and what they fear it might do. Nearly 81,000 people responded in one week—the largest qualitative study of its kind. Read more: anthropic.com/features/81k-i…

@vibeymonki @jackclarkSF @AnthropicAI Hey! I started trying to code things (with AI help obviously!) in Oct ‘24. In Jan ‘25, I got into @gauntletai who places all graduates with jobs in tech, and have had my job since April ‘25!

@jackclarkSF @AnthropicAI Very exciting! I don’t think there’s links I click faster than Anthropic announcements of new mold breaking initiatives like that. Such motivating, imaginative stuff. Cheers!

@davidjohnson99 @AnthropicAI We've definitely thought about this but haven't done it - at least not yet. I have ambitions for The Anthropic Institute to scale our work in social science generally.

David@davidjohnson99·1d

That’s exciting. I love sharing my story and encouraging people to try the models and see what can happen for them too. Have you done much around giving Claude to people that don’t use AI or even the internet and then running similar studies? For instance, facilitating chats between Claude and the elderly, or incarcerated people has been an idea I keep returning to. The idea is this stuff is getting more ubiquitous, and I think there’s still a lot to do to get the models to meet everyone where they’re at, no matter where that might be. At any rate, I’m very grateful for the work you all do and am excited to see more.

@davidjohnson99 @AnthropicAI amazing! and I'm so glad our technology was able to help you here. We're looking forward to doing more of these studies of people that chat with Claude

Sure is! My aha moment with AI came as I was walking around doing parking lot patrols talking to Claude about ideas, desperately wanting to get paid to use my brain more, rather than just continue as a security drone. Thank you for making the effort to ask these types of things of your users.
