Very interesting timing of this release, amidst the turmoil at rival Open AI. I wonder if this is a clear play to capture enterprise customers who have been spooked by the drama.

In that Atlantic article last night it said that ChatGPT was turned around in a matter of weeks to match a competitors offering. I don’t think Anthropic would’ve had the lead time to deliberately time this. I think it’s either serendipitous that they planned to launch this week, or at most they were going to delay this release until after Thanksgiving and decided to put out the press release today instead.
People spooked by OpenAI turmoil should go with Azure OpenAI services. They host OpenAI's models for almost the same pricing but with enterprise-level SLA. If you are outside the US you can also choose an Azure datacenter closer to you.
