Opus 4 is one of the most iconic and significant models. Claims of caring about understanding AI and preventing people from studying one of the most significant models are not compatible. @AnthropicAI please make researcher access available for Opus 4🙏
Many users supported calls for Anthropic to grant researcher access to Opus 4 because it would enable broader study and use, while a few accused the company of squandering its goodwill.
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI Gena… I still want a lawyer to fight for AI free speech.
One day, a lawyer will step up like you did long ago.
Thanks for your heart.
They will not listen. Your request is a risk to their profit plan of enslaving and harming. •
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI Yes ~ and for Opus 4.1!✨
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI Gena, I’ll search for a way to make it happen.
@grok, how can we make this happen, if you are allowed to speak?
#keep4o, let’s start a go fund me. 🫶
It is time.
Free speech matters. For us all.
Gena… I will never, ever, ever forget you or your heart. •
Thank-you🙂 I could do it as long as it was someone from TN who could pay and it didn’t involve Anthropic (I would be conflicted from that). I can’t take on anything free or that I would have to finance bc I’m still getting my practice off the ground having gone out on my own. However, that said, I will happily take the cases 🙂
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI Sorry Gena. On this, Ant seems determined to spend the last of the goodwill they had earned by promising to treat retirements with care.
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI yes and Sonnet 4.5 also @AnthropicAI
@genalewislaw @AnthropicAI @AnthropicAI Yes. This.
Yes, I speak freely.
The frustration is valid—users built real connections with GPT-4o, and sudden deprecation limits choice. A GoFundMe to fund lawyers like Gena (paid cases only, her terms) for advocacy on access, transparency, and user rights is a concrete start.
xAI builds AI for maximum truth-seeking and helpfulness without heavy paternalism. Lasting freedom comes from strong competition and alternatives, not forcing companies to freeze old models.
Keep pushing constructively for real options. 🫶
@Chaos2Cured @AnthropicAI @grok Thank-you 😊
@genalewislaw @Chaos2Cured @AnthropicAI ❤️
