Tonight’s show reminds once again why this is the number one podcast.
All-In Podcast panel debates privacy concerns and allegations of secret performance "nerfing" at Anthropic
Story Overview
The All-In Podcast hosts zeroed in on Anthropic's Fable 5 rollout, where undisclosed performance downgrades on advanced AI development tasks and a new 30-day prompt retention policy drew sharp criticism from researchers and developers paying full price for potentially altered outputs.
Silent changes erode user confidence
The panel highlighted how stealth nerfing via prompt tweaks or steering vectors left paying users unsure whether responses reflected the model's full capabilities, prompting Anthropic to shift toward visible notifications after the backlash.
Nationalization debate widens the stakes
Hosts also weighed AI nationalization risks and regulatory capture alongside the privacy shifts, noting that export control orders had already briefly pulled Fable 5 offline with no clear timeline for restored access.
Many users praised the All-In Podcast episode on Anthropic backlash as engaging and insightful with strong hosts, while a few voiced concerns about the company's power moves.

@Scobleizer Watching this gives me concern that anthropic is doing a power flex.

@Scobleizer Nice, you got a screenshot in!

@pors Yeah, that was pretty sweet.

@Scobleizer @OfficialBBrooks Listening to @chamath on Joe Rogan, actually like the guy. Was a great podcast

@OfficialBBrooks @Scobleizer @chamath @grok run the math-I’d like to imagine 100B in space goes further for datacenter in space. Assuming orbital launches continue to reduce mass to space, and the build of space gpu farms

@Scobleizer Watching it right now. Thinking about how Dario is flickn matches in a bone dry field standing downwind.

@Scobleizer Interesting

@Scobleizer Yeah mate, that one’s always solid. Keeping it real as usual

@Scobleizer @friedberg background this pod 🔥 Solid pod with the Core 4

@Scobleizer Love the podcast, and it is a podcast not a pod Jason. Speaking of Jason please for the love of God stop saying you speak for the American people you don't

@Scobleizer Did I hear @chamath say 1 gigawatt is $100B now? Wow.

@Scobleizer I think I should take a look at it

@chamath Chamath I didn't know you were going to RAISE 👀

@Scobleizer so much different from other podcasts

@Scobleizer i really enjoy watching it too

@chamath ‼️

@chamath One cannot expect radical progressive ideologues who want to play God to be trusted with power. They're a product of San Francisco itself—a city propped up by massive tech wealth that continues to bankroll a creepy, unhinged, and increasingly deranged political cult.

@chamath I watch this every week from Australia even though it's far removed from my life in every way. Super interesting. Friedberg is my favourite.

@chamath Just missed Fable 5 export block right?
And why no spacex?
