Preventing abuse? It's much harder to create a throwaway phone number than a throwaway email address.

You'd rather hand over your credit card than your phone number? I think most people would see it the other way around.

Just like OpenAI or Grok, there is no transparency and no way for self-hosting purposes. Your input and confidential information can be collected for training purposes.

I just don't trust those companies when you use their servers. This is not a good approach to LLM democratization.

Credit card is easily changed. Phone number is much more difficult.

Honestly I don't think Anthropic cares about you moving over to them - it's pretty evident that they already have more demand than they can handle.

I've always had better experience with Claude in day-to-day coding and text writing, and looking at public forums that largely seems to be the case.

> Third, in developing our reasoning models, we’ve optimized somewhat less for math and computer science competition problems, and instead shifted focus towards real-world tasks that better reflect how businesses actually use LLMs.

Company: we find that optimizing for LeetCode level programming is not a good use of resources, and we should be training AI less on competition problems.

Also Company: we hire SWEs based on how much time they trained themselves on LeetCode

Not difficult at all for anyone actually wanting to abuse it
