NoteThe source confirms two of the three claim components: (1) co-lead of OpenAI Superalignment team is confirmed ('he and Ilya Sutskever became the co-leaders of the newly introduced "superalignment" project'); (2) prominent advocate for AI safety resource allocation is partially supported by his Time 100 AI listings, resignation over safety concerns, and his statement about safety culture taking a backseat. However, the source does NOT specify his title at Anthropic as 'VP of Alignment Science' — it only states 'He joined Anthropic in May 2024' without providing a job title. The Wikipedia excerpt does not contain information about his specific role/title at Anthropic, making that portion unverifiable from this source.
