This is the government trying to swing its dick around and kill Anthropic because they wouldn't allow mass domestic surveillance with their models.
Amodei has been calling for models to be regulated, so he got his wish.
I guess what I'm saying is that I won't look at his numbers since he's an unreliable source from my point of view and there's a chance that he's going to try to deceive me and it's a waste of time for me to listen to him.
But he's linking out to sources
They are willing to tolerate it now, which is quite a switch up from the free for all we had a few weeks ago, and if they aren’t able to tie in this new ~$1500p/m cap to demonstrable productivity and revenue increases then that will be kneecapped even faster
Concern maybe elsewhere, but I like how we have gone full circle.
SpaceX expects to complete its $60 billion acquisition of AI coding startup Cursor roughly 30 days after it begins trading publicly, according to Bloomberg.
Cursor's Composer 2 model was built on Kimi K2.5, who were in turn accused of 'distillation' attacks by Anthropic.
Anthropic now relies on SpaceX for compute demands.
It paints Costco as some sort of cultural retirement home.
which is fitting since the author used the phase "cheugy" unironically.
Left unchallenged (court, charge back, whatever) why change course?
They are trying to go public and will get absolutely bitchslapped by SOX.
what? Opus 1m has been in place for at least a few weeks for plan users.
I think the root cause is that Anthropic is capacity constrained so is having to make choices about the customers they want to serve and have chosen people who use Claude Code above other segments.
I think that's part of it, the other part is that OpenClaw is OpenAI IP now, and Anthropic want to allow users to ensloppify the internet through their own features now instead.
Bundled with it is xAI, which is presumably losing money hand over fist.
But that is surely offset by Twitter, which is doing great business.
wouldn't touch this with a barge pole. Failed company after failed company rolled into the largest IPO ever? No thanks.
Musk is clearly trying to dump his bags on retail before the next recession is confirmed.

Close.
It’s legalised insider trading. So you can always assume at this point that someone who knows will be cashing out.
Interesting, because I’d choose not to fly with an entire carrier because they have chosen to implement Starlink and support a Nazi pedophile, but horses for courses.
pretty sure Gemini has shipped with a 1m context window for a long time
"We have these two red lines... Not allowing Anthropic's AI to perform mass surveillance of Americans, and prohibiting its AI from powering fully-autonomous weapons..."
Anthropic literally said the same, but seem to be getting positive PR.

It's disgusting honestly. There are likely at least 136 directly reported civilian and child deaths linked to the operations where their services were used. And they are very proud.
83 people in total killed in US attack to abduct President Nicolas Maduro
Blood is on their hands already
it's more than just that:

Binance holds about 87% of USD1, the stablecoin issued by a Trump family crypto venture—a greater concentration than any other major stablecoin has at a single exchange, roughly $4.7 billion of the $5.4 billion total supply.
Amazon turned me off selling completely. I was subjected to an obvious fraudulent buyer on a high value item ($5k) and they did everything in their power to make it as painful as possible for me to fight:
- An A-Z claim from the buyer was denied by Amazon for fraud (supposed non-delivery of the item), yet their returns department auto-approved a return for the same order just 12 days later.
- The customer returned a completely different item with documented serial number/weight discrepancies and seller-provided video evidence, yet I was left with no recourse.
- The customer then filed a fraudulent credit card chargeback. I won the first round, but Amazon refuses to participate in second-round disputes - so despite overwhelming evidence of five separate fraud attempts, they sent a generic email and docked $5k from my seller account.
- Amazon then refused to answer any further communications, including basic disclosure of which card issuer was involved or what evidence was submitted - making any independent appeal impossible.
- Every dispute stage (A-Z, returns, chargebacks) required rebuilding the fraud case from scratch. Zero continuity, and zero care for an independent seller with a strong track record of sales and feedback.
Yet he didn't feel the need to hide the plane he received from the Saudis, or the gold bars he got from tech companies.
You are willfully obtuse if you believe these are equivocal examples.
And not that it matters, but the plane in question was 'gifted' from the Qatari royal family, not 'the Saudis'.
Nope, all user submitted likely with the assistance of Claude.
This is sad in that I was serious about finally getting one in two to three years
Couldn't have said it better
Because Heathrow markets itself as a world class airport and they have been woefully behind the times with regards to updating their security tech
It's being destroyed on purpose, with backing from the crypto industry who stand to have the most to gain at the expense of everyone else.
This is illegal in the UK (and we aren't even talking about the hidden tax surprise at US registers either), unsurprising to see it's normalised in the US.
US dystopia: probably accelerating?
Yeah, absolutely no indicators whatsoever we can go off of right now.
yes, but recent alerts don't seem to be reporting properly, which now makes sense given the news.
Despite the flashy title that's the first "sober" analysis from a CEO I read about the technology.
Didn't IBM just sign quite a big deal with Groq?

think you'll be surprised in what has been signed for on your behalf.
Enough is enough, when is the regulation going to shut these legal insider trading markets down?
