And why cannot they have someone associated with Anthropic as co-author? That’s not obvious at all. For sure they would prefer to be the only ones, but it’s pretty standard to have co-authors from different companies, even if they are technically competitors. What is inappropriate about it?
because it severely dilutes the PR value.
If writing up the paper would involve using OpenAI's unreleased model, neither OpenAI nor Anthropic would be happy about Alpöge having that access.

that's only true for papers that are not millenium problem solutions
in another world this could have been a beautiful collaboration
It's inappropriate if you're a sociopath.
