When will folks stop trusting Palantir-partnered Anthropic is probably a better question.
Anthropic has weaponized the safety narrative into a marketing and political tool, and it is quite clear that they're pushing this narrative both for publicity from media that love the doomer narrative because it brings in ad-revenue, and for regulatory capture reasons.
Their intentions are obviously self-motivated, or they wouldn't be partnering with a company that openly prides itself on dystopian-level spying and surveillance of the world.
OpenAI aren't the good guys either, but I wish people would stop pretending like Anthropic are.
All of the leading labs are on track to kill everyone, even Anthropic. Unlike the other labs, Anthropic takes reasonable precautions, and strives for reasonable transparency when it doesn't conflict with their precautions; which is wholly inadequate for the danger and will get everyone killed. But if reality graded on a curve, Anthropic would be a solid B+ to A-.
