The difference is that Anthropic pretend they're the good guys, while the rest don't.


Amodei is much worse than Altman since he has that weird altruistic aura and marketing. Altman even normies can mostly tell is just a sleazebag who is after money.


It's like the Mike prince arc in the show billions


Come on, Anthropic ARE the good guys if there are any. Certainly the incentives of trillions will do what money does, but they have assembled an incredibly altruistic and philosophically-minded crew. I’m rooting for them and trying real hard not to get cynical.


Cool story, akin to that of Buterin/Etherium one.

The crew has nothing to do with intentions and moral qualities of their owners.

(And even at that I highly doubt the "altruistic" claim to be true about people who work at one of the world's largest heaps of money.)


I would rather call them a cult.
