This is obviously political and the entire narrative is fabrication.
David Sacks is publicly gloating about it: https://x.com/DavidSacks/status/2065853007619588171
I can't really say that Anthropic didn't get what they deserved. They exploited security threats to sell their product and play political games, and now their rivals are rubbing it in their faces.

I agree with this

I do no like David Sacks but how do you say this is gloating about it?
Again, I do believe this is political, but Sacks is saying "you said this is dangerous and wanted regulation, and we believe you. Fix this because it's dangerous and we'll let it out again".
How is this gloating?
Sacks works for the government now. Everything is political. This happening on the day SpaceX IPO’d? It’s a flex, and a message.
what's the flex? what's the message? how does it relate to the IPO?

he is emphasizing that they used their own words against them. everyone knows the security threat is a pretext. the message is that he is smart and they are stupid and he won, which is what I call gloating.
> "Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong."
an obvious lie, which is inserted to emphasize that it is a lie. when you purposefully lie, not to deceive, but with the intent that the counter-party knows you are lying and must accept the lie, that is an assertion of power.
"everyone knows the security threat is a pretext." On what planet? Anthropic itself made a big stink about Mythos being able to hack every app out there, and very dangerous as a result. Many reports have confirmed this.
He is reinforcing his point by referencing Anthropic’s statements.
Virtually every debater is gloating by that measure.
It is gloating in the context of it being the exact same form of dangerous as all the other frontier models out there?
anthropic would see a crazy boost to its ipo for releasing " so good that we had to ban it" model .
i dont see how it effects them negatively at all given their opus models are already on par or exceed any other model out there.
