This is just Anthropic trying to not be absent from any discussion at all.

This suspicion is coming from my own country where the retail investor numbers since the pandemic has exploded and while not exploding anymore, is still ballooning. Sometimes companies, execs say, do things that don't make sense. You'd think any person with even quarter an investing brain would not even look at this company or that particular "messaging", let alone sell or buy. But then you'd see the exact opposite happen .. en masse!
