Re: The Anthropic Economic Index
#63I think Anthropic does a good job highlighting the efforts they take to anonymize data. It’s a marketing risk even to be open about the use of this data.
There are things we say or write openly without caring who hears or reads it. Things we share with friends and family. Things we share with our closest friend, partner, or therapist. Finally there is our private heart which holds the things we’re not comfortable sharing with anyone.
I worry that LLMs are sufficiently anthropomorphic but not "real" enough to be privy to these latter thoughts. In the wrong hands this data is catastrophic at the individual level.

#65Earlier quoted context omitted.
Anthropic is a Public Benefit Corporation whose governance is very different from a typical company in that it doesn’t put shareholder ROI above all else. A majority of its board seats are reserved for people who hold no equity whatsoever and whose explicit mandate is to look out for humanity. https://www.anthropic.com/news/the-long-term-benefit-trust https://time.com/6983420/anthropic-structure-openai-incentiv...
Put this and 'dont be evil' and 5 dollars in my hand and I'll give you a cup of coffee.
Coffee for $5? That's a steal in this economy!
Re: The Anthropic Economic Index
#66Awesome that there are releasing this paper and the associated data. I hope they'll do this regularly, so that changes can be tracked. One thing I hope they'll correct going forward is inclusion of API usage. Anecdotally, I only use Anthropic models via Cursor. So none of that usage shows up in here. I'd expect that specialized tools/interfaces like Cursor will grow and thus more usage will shift to API. It would be…
haven't they committed to not training on / using data submitted through API?

I don't think I can eat the output of some AI chatbot...
Pretty sure things are gonna go far beyond chatbots into robots
Probably robotic avatars like those Tesla bots

Re: The Anthropic Economic Index
#69I wouldn't expect Anthropic to have any special knowledge/insight in this area aside from the data they have on usage of their own tools. As such, I'd be much more interested to see some "Google Trends"-like data about Anthropic usage. Unfortunately, since AI is dynamic and competitive industry, I don't think anyone will be sharing information like that for a long time.
Honestly, simply releasing a graph showing the trendline of their own metrics on e.g. inference would speak volumes. They have this data already, 100%, its on some grafana dashboard the on-calls are watching every day. My suspicion is that some AI providers (OAI/Google) are watching these metrics go up-and-to-the-right quite consistently, but Anthropic's isn't doing that.
depends on if you count API usage. OpenRouter shows that it's pretty clearly up and to the right thanks to tools like cursor -- they're at 2x the volume vs. just 3 months ago https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-3.5-sonnet:beta/activ...
Re: The Anthropic Economic Index
#70Seems like Anthropic has too much money on their hands and are looking for ways to spend it. It’s surprising to see lean AI startups accumulate fat so quickly. Usually this sort of wheel spinning is reserved for large corporations. And it’s not just them. To me this trend screams “valuations are too high”, and maybe hints at “progress might start to stagnate soon”.

This is why I cancelled my chatgpt subscription and moved to claude. Its kinda silly, but I feel like the products are about equivalent for my use case so I'd rather do business with a company that is acting in good (better?) faith.
