Is it my imagination, but don’t the CEOs of Anthropic and OpenAI spread around a lot of bullshit whenever they want to raise more money or even worse try to get our government to set up regulatory barriers to hurt competitors?

I think this ‘story’ is an attempt to perhaps outlaw Chinese open weight models in the USA?

I was originally happy to see our current administration go all in on supporting AI development but now I think this whole ‘all in’ thing on “winning AI” is a very dark pattern.

seeing your comment downvoted, i wonder what the downvoters think differently.

I say that because your sentiment seems so similar to nearly all the other comments.

(perhaps downvoting without commentary is itself a collaborative dark pattern.)
