Interesting: New account, made approximately 20 minutes after this was posted, to solely call this out as slop. Someone either hates Anthropic, or something fishy is going on here.

Honestly I'm pretty tired of Anthropic's press releases too, but this one is pretty benign. If I was a hater, I'd save up my new-account-energy for their next "paper" that insinuates Claude might be actively introspecting.

It's been happening a lot recently, in both directions too. Hard to say if it's astroturfing or people making disposable accounts to say things they consider controversial without having to take the downvotes on their primary account.

Or based on how, if you have showdead on, you can occasionally find users that have been screaming into the void for months or years (because they managed to earn a shadowban), maybe just a handful of ill people.
