This is the happy ending.

I'm worried about who will rush in to fill the vacuum.

  • I'm sure Alex Karp and Palantir are already charging into the breach, promising to deliver things they don't have the capability to deliver! (Otherwise known as just another day for them)

No end here. The administration can still go above and beyond in an attempt to completely wreck Anthropic.

  • Could you expand on this? What mechanism? Any examples?

    • The state has unlimited resources to wreck you and I am not sure many people have faith in the US's judicial system to keep them in check.

      This will be a death by thousand cuts.

    • I would think it pretty clear that they aren't shy about making their displeasure loudly and concretely known when denied. I can imagine an executive order in the research or draft state that'll make it so any entity that continues to deal with Anthropic is automatically put at a disadvantage. Something similar in spirit and effect to the sanctions on Cuba.
