Jan Leike — Description: German AI safety researcher; VP of Alignment Science at Anthropic since 2024 after leaving OpenAI, where he co-led the Superalignment team with Ilya Sutskever. His research focuses on scalable oversight, recursive reward modeling, and AI alignment. Prominent public voice on AI safety resource allocation.

NoteThe source confirms most key facts: (1) German education (University of Freiburg), (2) joined Anthropic in May 2024, (3) left OpenAI, (4) co-led Superalignment with Ilya Sutskever. However, the source does NOT confirm his current title as 'VP of Alignment Science at Anthropic' — it only states he 'joined Anthropic in May 2024' without specifying his role. The source also does NOT explicitly mention his research focus areas (scalable oversight, recursive reward modeling) or characterize him as a 'prominent public voice on AI safety resource allocation.' The claim's 'as of 2026-04' date is beyond the source's knowledge cutoff (the Wikipedia article was last updated in 2024), making the current title unverifiable. The core biographical facts are confirmed, but the specific current role and research focus areas are not addressed in the source.
