it’s their month

They say ooooh be a good boy for daddy and you'll get a reward. But then the reward is just gay sex. This is bullshit. I wanted a skateboard

tbh i think this is a profoundly cynical way to read what is an extremely good push for regulation from Anthropic and an arbitrary and likely politically motivated attack from the Trump admin

I second the above addition. Unless and until we get evidence to the contrary, everything about this reeks of the Trump admin politically targeting a company that has pushed back against the Department of Defense & that continues to compete with - and indeed outperform - their preferred corporations' products. This decision from the US government is not principled regulation of private industry, nor is it a response to legitimate safety concerns about a particular model that Anthropic overlooked through negligence or malpractice - it's staightforward corporate favouritism.

I think two things can be true at once. It can absolutely be true that the Trump Administration is corruptly targeting a corporation it views as insufficient deferential and, in the long term, it's still not great to have AI regulation driven by an AI company no matter how well intentioned they seem at the moment.

i mean, this has been Anthropic's whole point! they've been screaming this, and now people are basically implying that they shouldn't have said it since it provided a pretext for this

im going to fix my entire life
