Then less than 24 hours he's already struck a deal with the military. So it's certainly giving overt praise to Anthropic, but at the same time here we are

How soon before stockholders sue over lost profits? Or google and Elongated Muskrat rush in to say "we will build skynet for you".

anthropic is despised in the open weight & local ai community. this is rather ironic given that anthropic partnered with Palantir (who does assist the government with mass spying)

Enjoy friendly fire from the second best AI killer engines...
