No big pockets and ask it to review your own codebase for security issues? You hacker. Ban.

Anthropic simply can't be allowed to succeed. This is the most E Corp shit I've seen since I've been alive.

Careful, someone may drop another whine article about HN being anti-ai (meanwhile nothing can be further from the truth, HN is one of the most, if not THE most, pro-AI news agg sites out there)

It’s not pretty, but if Anthropic is the E Corp of this timeline, we’re not being creative enough. There’s better targets out there for this comparison.

  • They're just getting started, and every statement/decision they make becomes more concerning than the previous one.

    Isn't it concerning that a single company unilaterally decided for the world that they're the ultimate gatekeepers and they decide who gets access to the frontier artifical intelligence and in which capacity?

    Who elected Amodei to decide which projects get to have the access to a dual-use cyber model and which get a model which sabotages? How is this not straight from E Corp's rulebook?

    • Good point. I imagine that other labs also restrict access to frontier models, but less publicly so. Do we know that, say, Gemini lets you develop a competitor product without any safeguards?

      In general this appears to be par-for-the-course with tech. Many Google products are notoriously slower or even unusable in Safari and Firefox, but we can't know for sure whether that's due to Chrome optimizations or purposefully wasted code cycles in other browsers.

Amodei is worse psychopath than Altman, and by far

  • Could you explain why?

    • It feels to me that Altman became humbler for the lack if a better word?

      And OpenAI's general communication as of late feels more grounded, much more pleasant than Anthropic comms. They also seem to be focusing on users quite a bit more.

      Anthropic's communication style feels like I somehow owe them my life or something.

      This was very different a year ago.
