Anthropic cofounder Daniela Amodei told ABC News that humanities training and 'soft' skills—communication, emotional intelligence and critical thinking—will grow in importance as AI automates technical work. Amodei said Anthropic prioritizes hires who are strong communicators and collaborators, and urged students to double down on writing and interpersonal skills. Her remarks have immediate implications for curriculum planning, hiring and student advising: institutions may need to rebalance investments between STEM and humanities, and to emphasize interdisciplinary programs that combine technical fluency with communication, ethics and civic reasoning.
