Anthropic Asks The Public To Question Its Own AI Products

Anthropic frames the ads as compelled by its Public Benefit Corporation charter, which required consulting the public first.

  • Survey drew on 52,000 Americans and 81,000 Claude users across 159 countries.
  • Anthropic Institute research and in-person focus groups also shaped the campaign.
  • Public can submit and view questions on a dedicated hard-questions website.

Why it matters: A public-benefit charter lets Anthropic grade the risks it created and call the grading research.
