The Verge (via Tech Startups roundup)·low signal
Per July 13 reporting, Anthropic hired Tom Blomfield (co-founder and former CEO of Monzo) for its AI compute team, extending a hiring run that recently added DeepMind's John Jumper and, earlier, Andrej Karpathy. The pattern — pulling operator and research talent onto infrastructure and compute — is a talent-signal worth tracking as Anthropic scales toward an IPO.
