Oprah Winfrey sat down with Dario Amodei and Daniela Amodei for a wide-ranging conversation about artificial intelligence. The Amodei siblings are the co-founders of Anthropic, one of the biggest AI companies in the world. Their interview is streaming now on Oprah’s YouTube channel and available on all podcast platforms.
Dario is the CEO of Anthropic. Daniela is its President. The two are also siblings. That makes their story a bit different from most tech co-founders. Together, they created Claude, one of the most popular AI assistants out there right now.
The @oprahpodcast Instagram account shared the news this week, describing the sit-down as “an in-depth discussion on Artificial Intelligence and its profound impact on all of us.” The post points people to Oprah’s YouTube channel or any major podcast platform to catch the full conversation.
Oprah has a gift for making big, complicated conversations feel accessible. That’s exactly what a topic like AI needs right now. She ran The Oprah Winfrey Show for 25 seasons and built an entire media empire through OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network. Over the years, she’s interviewed everyone from world leaders to pop stars. She has a real knack for asking the questions people actually want answered. Pairing her with two of the people building AI technology is a natural fit.
Dario, Daniela, and several colleagues previously worked at OpenAI. They left to start Anthropic in 2021. The company’s focus on AI safety has helped it stand out in a crowded space. Claude, Anthropic’s flagship assistant, has become one of the most widely used AI products around.
AI is genuinely everywhere right now, and most people are still figuring out what to make of it. It’s reshaping how doctors diagnose, how students learn, and how businesses run. Some people are thrilled by the direction things are heading. Others have serious concerns about jobs, privacy, and long-term effects. A lot of people feel all of that at once.
Dario and Daniela have both spoken openly about AI’s potential. They’ve also been clear about the real risks involved. They’ve consistently pushed for responsible development rather than racing for pure speed. Getting that message in front of Oprah’s massive audience feels like exactly the kind of moment this conversation needs.
The full interview is live on Oprah’s YouTube channel now. It’s also available on all major podcast platforms. Anyone curious about AI and what’s coming next will find this one well worth the time.
