Great article by Nathan. Antropic plays a double-standard game here (and in many other cases). They talk a lot about safety (which is super important), but what they actually do is prevent competition (which is legit, but should be transparent about it). They are wrapping the two together because they want to look good

I understand generic griping, but you are complaining about a company that has consistently been against open source, consistently had very restrictive terms of service, and consistently argued against diffusion of the cutting edge technology. You can dislike it all you want, but this is par for the course from Anthropic since the earliest days.

@w_bsun Mostly I've given them a pass because it was mostly being annoying before and not taking action.

@natolambert Fable agrees:

@natolambert the tension between moving fast and holding the line was always going to crack something eventually

@natolambert the irony is that every major lab ships safety comms that read like they were written for a different product than the one in the release notes. fable 5 isn't unique in that gap, it's just the most visible example right now
