Not the OP, but I suspect it's because of Bill Gates' recent scandals involving Jeffrey Epstein. Specifically with Bill Gates spiking his wife's food with antibiotics to cover up the fact that he got an STD from a Russian prostitute.

Good for you,

out here in the normal world, doing any of this surreptitious stuff is wrong,

Let me guess ...

Gates Foundation and/or principal actors attached to the Gates Foundation have equity stakes in Anthropic ...

... and they have made a decision to direct charitable funds toward the committed purchase of Anthropic tokens.

Do I have that right ?

Very much like Huang charitable foundation committing to purchase Coreweave services[1] ... which Huang has equity stakes in ?
