Anthropic legit builds one the strongest if not the strongest IC team in the history of computational technology. They are insanely stacked on talent, and either we will witness a legendary run, or a new LTCM

why so dramatic? why cant it just be a quietly competent lab, why must it be a dramatic collapse?

Extreme investor desire for return on capital investment, and quickly

Apart from Karpathy and now Shazeer and Jumper, who are the other top ICs in their team?
Google at its peak, as well as Microsoft, had similarly strong teams.
I'm starting to get the sense that Anthropic is the company that will fulfill the prophecy laid out in AI 2027.
