Exactly the question I've been wondering. Anthropic has been behaving as if serving Fable is way too expensive. And now they got people's money, and don't have to serve anything. Convenient.

The Fable debacle will justify the imposition of a solid legislative framework to serve as a legal foundation for the entire business sector. A DMCA for AI, if you will. The other incumbent players will demand it, because they can't do business subject to the arbitrary (or worse) whims of Donald Trump or whoever follows him.

That framework is, of course, what Amodei did ask for, but he mistakenly thought he'd have a seat at a table populated by rational actors. Even after the Trump administration explicitly told him otherwise when they declared his whole company to be a national security threat.

So what happened is all Amodei's fault. It's possible that the Anthropic board will decide that this particular unforced error is his last one. In fact, given that Amazon is apparently the prime mover behind this whole train wreck, I'd almost bet on it.

It's aggrandizing and spares compute, I'd have to assume so... if not done so publicly. Clearly was requested. A silly title proposition: 's/Anthropic/Dario/'; he wrote the essay TFA discusses. No 'think' required, they're surprised at the shape.

Might believe I'm overstating compute; consider, how often does OpenAI falter? Now, Anthropic before and after their recent capacity deals. We got to see the girlfriend that goes to another school, now she can go home [with cover from Uncle Sam, the trip is ~~expensive~~ dangerous].
