Cancelled. Anthropic can get bent if it wants to market itself as the ethical AI choice and at the same time lies in bed with those openly pushing for a surveillance state.

[originalvichy]

In my case, the ethical AI theatre fell apart as soon as I read about their first military contracts, specifically with the US government.

Their ethos is boiled down to ”we’ll do everything to stop AI from killing us all! However, on the path to AI world domination, we don’t mind helping with killing people here and there :)”

Agreed, this is crazy, and is exactly why the administration did what it did. However, every frontier model will require this within months.

You're right. I want to say that openai is a viable alternative, but they're even less trustworthy.

It might be time for me to start looking into Chinese models or purchasing hardware for local llms, even if the cost amounts to 5-10k.

[ai_fry_ur_brain]

For 15k you could run the best open source models (that would require 200k in hardware to run) 24/7 at 50 tps for like 5 years straight.

Im really not sure why anyone would spend 15k to run local llms. The models you'll be able to run (70b) param models will be incredibly underwhelming.

Is this assuming no price increase and no throttling ?

I canceled when they first labeled as a supply chain risk. Switched to codex and neverlooked back. This company will be more evil then Google at the end.

OpenAI had the the same restrictions. Also required you to verify via Persona. I complained and at some point the restrictions were removed. Not sure if because of my complaining or if someone in our org actually verified.

Interesting. Never knew about this and thats never happened to me. But good to know.

[dgellow]

Do you believe OpenAI won’t face the same troubles?

[jerry4next]

Thats a good question and I'm not sure. So far I am not aware of these same sort of issues facing OpenAI.

On a side note I have been playing around with local LLM and while it works, the speed is the bottle neck for me.

[slashdave]

So... do you know why they were labeled that way?

[zx8080]

Codex was bought by Musk a few days back.

[DANmode]

You’re thinking of Cursor, I’m sure……

Codex is a product of OpenAI.

[zx8080]

Yes, my bad.

[byzantinegene]

and.. how is codex any better?
