Cathie Wood blames Anthropic CEO's AI warnings for backlash, predicts labor shortage

Cathie Wood says Anthropic and its CEO Dario Amodei have driven negative AI headlines with warnings of a 10% chance of human extinction within a decade and massive job losses.

Wood, who runs ARK Invest, says she does not believe either outcome will happen and expects a labor shortage instead.

The criticism was reported by Rohan Paul on X on November 8, 2026. The report relays Wood's views and does not include a response from Anthropic or Amodei.
