Anthropic has chosen the *opposite* of the safe path: they are allowing themselves, the current top lab, to use their top model for frontier AI research. They've said they'll sabotage others who try.
This means the AI frontier advances, & power imbalance increases.
It also has the critical benefit of avoiding a dangerous power imbalance.
Users in the replies say Anthropic's frontier AI push sours the company's vibes despite markets likely diffusing its edge over time.
(To be clear, *I* don't think we should try to slow down recursive AI self improvement - I think we should open it up and democratize it as much as possible. My point is: if *you* claim we should slow down, and you have the best model, you should ensure your org can't use it.)

@jeremyphoward The gravitational pull of markets will likely diffuse whatever their edge is more widely over time. Def sours the vibes of the company though

@jeremyphoward Anthropic maybe winning today, but not for long.
