I wasn’t addressing America at all, I was responding to a quote suggesting that china is some benign benevolent power. What’s the logical fallacy where you change the subject and point out how some other unrelated entity does the same thing

Whether you agree with it or not has no effect on whether it's AI slop or not. Outside of math or coding, domains in which there is objective determinism, any AI outputs are slop to the extent they purport to represent the AI's su

I didn't say anything about profitability. Since Anthropic is all about the good of mankind etc, ostensibly profitability isn't their number one priority.

You are correct you have no reason to believe OAI compared to me. But I’m sure you’re aware that they are the ones making the extraordinary claim here. I’m simply saying it sounds like something that advertising would come up and it’s right

Is this the same thing that broke out of the sandbox and into HuggingFace? Or we are just assuming that was a PR stunt, which it almost certainly was. Either way, this shit isn’t getting near my system.

Well, Opus 5 and Fable are the only models I don’t constantly swear at and call stupid, which seems like a pretty good moat to me. My guess is all the commenters (you are the 4th person I’ve seen say this) saying ‘Anthropic has no moat’ hav

I stopped bothering with Grok for anything when 4.5 dropped. It was so awful that I figured Elon had given up and was going to give alll his compute to Anthropic. I’m extremely sceptical anyways - Grok 4.5 was probably the worst model I eve

The same reason apple could reasonably block people from selling anything with an easily falsifiable claim: misleading consumers is bad, and apps that are misleading aren’t allowed. That already exists. Telling people you can tell them thei

Western models censor just as much shit as the Chinese models do, big guy, it’s just different material. While we should be pushing for universal fully uncensored models, this comment is lazy and trite at this point. But you already know th

And? Nobody cares. This is neither a controversy nor news, and that would be the case even if Anthropic hadn’t just settled a 1.5 billion dollar lawsuit where they trained Claude on thousands of books without permission lol. To be clear I’m

That’s not what frontier means. There are two frontier labs - OpenAI and Anthropic, and maybe 4 frontier models currently. That term refers to model capacity and in general represents a model’s capability relative to the rest of the industr
