>What we’re learning from this episode is that the government actually has way more leverage over private companies than we realized. Who is learning this for the first time only now? Even just restricting ourselves to the current administration, look at how many times Trump has directed punitive actions against private entities!

I really hate how people think LLMs == AI. An LLM can’t/shouldn’t be doing anything other than generating text.

I’m also as pedantic as you and use “LLM” even talking about these systems but you need to be flexible and accept that “AI” is already in everyone’s head when referring to GPT variants.

But the "Anthropic fight" is mostly fake. Palantir was using Claude as base model. Anthropic allegedly took issue with unsupervised kills because the technology wasn't ready (or something along the lines).
