It’s not that this is a crazy reach; it’s actually quite a dumb one.

Too little pay off, way too much risk. That’s your framework for assessing conspiracies.

Hyping up Chinese espionage threats? The payoff is a government bailout when the profitability of these AI companies comes under threat. The payoff is huge.

Why bring the word “conspiracy” to this discussion though?

Marketing stunts aren't conspiracies.

  • It’s a conspiracy. Even employees from OpenAI say anthropic’s stance on things is quite clearly sincere. They literally exist because they were unhappy with ai safety at OpenAI.

    It’s not just a conspiracy, it’s a dumb and harmful one.
