I feel like stuff like this and "oh look our AI tried to kill us" is just marketing to make their models look more powerful than they are.

    This is absolutely what it is. Anthropic’s “safety” research has been mostly laughable. It’s honestly a very tired schtick at this point.

      Anyone who's dealt with their insane arbitrary account bans knows exactly what's under the hood at Anthropic as a company, a headless chicken pecking at buttons.

      I'm a long paying customer, my only usage at all of Claude is for devops IAC and debugging, suddenly out of the blue they decided to ban my account and keep the money. It's unreal.

      The response to my appeal said after "lengthy consideration" I had broke the T&C's.

I'm sure that Misanthropic sponsored studies are entirely unbiased and accurate.

This is either marketing or virtue signaling or both.

Jack Clark was out before congress yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDNrUZBZDA4 - fwiw, I've known Jack for almost 20 years now and we talk relatively regularly, he's not in marketing, and he means what he says.

"Cancer is cured, the economy grows at 10% a year, the budget is balanced — and 20% of people don't have jobs"

That's a "prediction" by Amodei.

It's just words. Pure bullshit. Diminishing my otherwise high opinion of Anthropic.

Easily the biggest reason I left anthropic recruiter on read.
