Maybe the portion of Anthropic that produces Opus/Sonnet can be spun out for us devs at a reasonable valuation?
Keep all the Mythos/Projects/etc. hype/feature-creep crap in some other entity and value that at $5 tn or something if you wish.
Anthropic's small models are almost certainly distilled from their larger ones. And their biggest training expense are going to be experimental models that aren't even intended for release, just to test out some idea.
This reminds me of all the people asking for AWS to be spun out of Amazon.
Just spin the golden-egg production part out of the goose, then we can cook and eat the rest.
