People were not given a tool to do something easier. That is not how it was promoted or sold. And that is not why businesses pay for AI. AI was sold as a tool to replace people and do things on the cheap. A person is attached to it as an ac

Whole Silicon Valley is based on selling products under price, for years, killing the competition or making it impossible and extracting once monopoly position is stable enough. It is the same play book again and again and again and again.

I think that Anthropic is fully absolutely unethical. And they lied a lot. They were actively trying to make the doom happen while trying to cash out maximally on doom trolling. If they were actually concerned over social impact, they would
