The source confirms Jan Leike works at Anthropic and is associated with alignment science work. However, the source describes him as 'co-lead of the Alignment Science team' rather than 'Head of Alignment Science'. These are different titles—'co-lead' implies shared leadership with others, while 'Head' suggests sole leadership. The source also confirms he joined in 2024 (matching the 2024-05 start date claim), but does not specify May 2024. The core facts are confirmed but the specific job title differs.
