"We believe our internal AI R&D efforts are significantly faster than they would be without AI assistance, but not yet by a factor of 2 (though we are uncertain and measurement is difficult)"

So Anthropic thinks their productivity is not even doubled by AI. Interesting data point.

My friends and I, and the teams I'm a part of, just want to build and create fun, cool things. I am so tired of being preached to by Anthropic like they're some arbiter of 'ethics.' So, so tired.

AI companies are flooding the zone like Steve Bannon. Leave no one time to develop thoughts.

It's crazy how Anthropic talks so much about their "AGI risk" and not enough about the risk of bankruptcy.
