At this rate, Anthropic's next step is not releasing strong models to the public at all, which is quite depressing to imagine.

Many users accused Anthropic of hypocrisy for withholding advanced models in the name of safety while destroying the AI commons, though a few defended the company as consistent and principled.

Competitive seething aside, OpenAI bros have good reasons to hate this. The real crime of Anthropic is, I think, that they've destroyed the commons. If a lab develops a much stronger model, what is the incentive to make it available to competition *that sabotages your work?*

@teortaxesTex It also nukes all safety collaboration or joint pause narratives.

"why tf would I willingly collab or accept a pause vote from a lab that wants to kidney shiv me?"

A coalition on "fuck CN/RU/EU", though unprincipled, was workable; now it's plainly "all labs for themselves gl".

@teortaxesTex I find it extremely ironic that Anthropic is doing this all in the name of “safety” while Dario simultaneously pushes out PR taking the position that Trump, the guy who bombs elementary schools, should decide how and where fully autonomous weapons are used.

@RoKahina @teortaxesTex Trump represents the will of the people , So when Dario says Trump should decide, he's actually saying the people should decide

@konstmish Yes indeed. Perhaps their strategy is making more money by selling their models to corporations rather than individuals. While the Fable 5 is very good, it runs into usage limit very quickly for it to be useful to researchers in a meaningful way.
