> Claude helps take the late-night work off their plates.

This is dangerous. Relying on so much of your business on a third party. We've seen this many times before where businesses get destroyed because something gets broken somewhere that they have outsourced and have no control over.

In my view this service should not be used, unless there is a local llm or clear manual alternative.

Then the question begs - Why use Claude at all?

Maybe a proof of concept only while you come up with a real solution. Maybe to use claude to get rid of Claude

The people who get dazzled by bright lights are going to be the ones licking their wounds later. There is going to be eggs on faces one day.

> D.3. Limitations of Outputs; Notice to Users. It is Customer’s responsibility to evaluate whether Outputs are appropriate for Customer’s use case, including where human review is appropriate, before using or sharing Outputs. Customer acknowledges, and must notify its Users, that factual assertions in Outputs should not be relied upon without independently checking their accuracy, as they may be false, incomplete, misleading or not reflective of recent events or information. Customer further acknowledges that Outputs may contain content inconsistent with Anthropic’s views.

Must be nice being able to ruthlessly lie with "this is the future" marketing claims, while hiding behind this term of service.

  • It is a far bit tougher to actually get the clankers to speak accurately. I understand the legal perspective, with OpenAI talking about depression use cases, these companies who are running computers for users have to worry the software might harm the user(through themselves) and the leagl fallout needs protected.

    It amazes me that we are going to litigate this like they did with cars over horses, or machines vs human labor. I honestly don't think Claude should be running companies.

Of course, should it be as cost efficient as claimed and if you don't use it but everybody else does, you might be pushed out of the market.
