Anthropic CEO's Wife Sought Epstein Investment for Porn Company

This story is about a woman named Cami Clark, who is married to Dario Amodei, the boss of Anthropic, a big artificial intelligence company.

Years before she married him, she started a company called Eddice that wanted to make fancier grown-up movies aimed at women.

To get money for her company, she asked a very rich man named Jeffrey Epstein to invest in it.

Epstein had been convicted of a crime in 2008 and had to register as a sex offender, but Clark still met him for dinner in 2011 after a literary agent named John Brockman introduced them.

She emailed him her movie ideas and wrote that the material was 'a little nsfw,' which means not safe for work.

Epstein said he couldn't do 'TV sex,' and there is no proof he ever gave her money.

She also asked him about other ideas, like a health and dieting app for women, and invited him to a housewarming party.

The Wall Street Journal found these emails in the Epstein files, and they went viral online.

People are talking about it because Clark is an important adviser to her husband even though she does not officially work at Anthropic, and she helped connect him with a famous investor named Eric Schmidt.
