Yep, in exactly the same way that for years Google was 'not evil'.
When anthropic can no longer grow through developer subscriptions and deals with ethical companies, Lets see how long it takes their shareholders to force them to remove such sweet statements from their company mission statement.
I love how you chastised me for speculating on Altman’s mind state but apparently you can predict the future and know what Anthropic is going to do N years from now.
Yeah maybe Anthropic will become a rent-seeking corporation. That’s likely even. And yet that’s not actually relevant at all to what I said; the fact is that right now they appear to have more principles than Altman and OpenAI
There is no corporation in existence that hasnt eventually bowed to the whim of their shareholder masters. Everybody grows up and moves on, and when everybody in Anthropic who shares your golden heart is gone onto their next job, the companies ethical nature will plummet rapidly.
