At Anthropic, he will focus on optimizing the training and inference of the company's AI models. Tulloch, who worked at Meta for 11 years, left for Anthropic after turning down a potential $1.5 billion offer from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. He is expected to join Anthropic's inference and performance team next week. Anthropic, which is preparing for its initial public offering and facing concerns about the potential dangers of AI, sees this hire as a strategic move.",
