OG Tech Founders Return to AI | Tech News
Description
Tech titans are flooding back into the startup trenches, laser-focused on AI’s next big wave. Tom Blomfield, co-founder of Monzo, is now joining Anthropic as a technical staff member. Mike Krieger, Instagram’s co-creator, is stepping into Anthropic as Chief Product Officer. Andrej Karpathy, ex-OpenAI and Tesla AI head, is also joining Anthropic’s pre-training team. Even Chamath Palihapitiya, known for SPACs, is taking his first full-time CEO role at AI coding startup 8090 Labs. The common thread? FOMO and the belief that AI is the next frontier — and they’re rolling up their sleeves to build it from the ground floor. The humble “member of technical staff” title is becoming the badge of honor for this new generation of AI pioneers.
