I’m voting with my dollars by having cancelled my ChatGPT subscription and instead subscribing to Claude. Google needs stiff competition and OpenAI isn’t the camp I’m willing to trust. Neither is Grok. I’m glad Anthropic’s work is at the forefront and they appear, at least in my estimation, to have the strongest ethics.

The funny thing is that Anthropic is the only lab without an open source model

Can those be even called open source if you can't rebuild if from the source yourself?

You are not the one folks are worried about. US Department of War wants unfettered access to AI models, without any restraints / safety mitigations. Do you provide that for all governments? Just one? Where does the line go?

If you read the resignation letter, they would appear to be so cryptic as to not be real warnings at all and perhaps instead the writings of someone exercising their options to go and make poems

For people like me who can't view the link due to corporate firewalling. https://web.archive.org/web/20260217180019/https://www-cdn.a...

Put of curiosity, does the firewall block because the company doesn’t want internal data ever hitting a 3rd party LLM?

They blanket banned any AI stuff that's not pre-approved. If I go to chatgpt.com it asks me if I'm sure. I wish they had not banned Claude unfortunately when they were evaluating LLMs I wasn't using Claude yet so I couldnt pipe up. I only use ChatGPT free tier and to ask things that I can't find on Google because Google made their search engine terrible over the years.

uhh..why? I subbed just 1 month to Claude, and then never used it again.

• Can't pay with iOS In-App-Purchases

• Can't Sign in with Apple on website (can on iOS but only Sign in with Google is supported on web??)

• Can't remove payment info from account

• Can't get support from a human

• Copy-pasting text from Notes etc gets mangled

• Almost months and no fixes

Codex and its Mac app are a much better UX, and seem better with Swift and Godot than Claude was.

That's rewriting history. What they said at the time: > Nearly a year ago we wrote in the OpenAI Charter : “we expect that safety and security concerns will reduce our traditional publishing in the future, while increasing the importance of sharing safety, policy, and standards research,” and we see this current work as potentially representing the early beginnings of such concerns, which we expect may grow over time…

They said: > Due to concerns about large language models being used to generate deceptive, biased, or abusive language at scale, we are only releasing a much smaller version of GPT‑2 along with sampling code (opens in a new window). "Too dangerous to release" is accurate. There's no rewriting of history.

Well, and it's being used to generate deceptive, biased, or abusive language at scale. But they're not concerned anymore.

does anyone know how to use it in Claude Code cli right now ? This doesnt work: `/model claude-sonnet-4-6-20260217` edit: "/model claude-sonnet-4-6" works with Claude Code v2.1.44

Seems like Claude Code v2.1.45 is out with Sonnet 4.6 as the new default in the /model list.

Or some cultures are more conservative? And it's embedded in language?

Or maybe some cultures have a higher rate of asking "inappropriate" questions

According to whom, though, good sir??

I did a little research in the GPT-3 era on whether cultural norms varied by language - in that era, yes, they did

Absolutely everyone should be allowed to access AI models without any restraints/safety mitigations.

What line are we talking about?
