Comment by Jared Kaplan

We felt that it wouldn't actually help anyone for us to stop training AI models. [...] We didn't really feel, with the rapid advance of AI, that it made sense for us to make unilateral commitments if competitors are blazing ahead.

AI Verified Verified. TIME’s article dated February 24, 2026 contains both sentences and explicitly attributes them to Anthropic chief science officer Jared Kaplan. The published TIME version presents them as adjacent quoted sentences and includes an internal ellipsis in the second sentence; a CNN transcript later restates the same wording without that internal ellipsis. That means the submitted version is authentic in wording and attribution, with normalized omission formatting.
