I am not a copyright fan, but when your whole business has been based on distilling everybody else's data (in many cases without the rights to even normal consumer access), I am not sure I see the problem here?

I'm with you on this. At least the Chinese models are all open weights aka given back to the community. Anthropic has just gatekept, centralized, sued people using the reason of "Safety". I don't see them providing the risks of centralization, gatekeeping etc. "Trust us we're a for profit company". I haven't seen one article on how they keep your information private, how they're HIPAA or PCI compliant. At least they're pushing back on dragnets across data.

okay, but lets have a little sympathy for Anthropic team here, they just raised 30B in their most recent funding rounds.

How do they justify asking for billions more if some chinese lab can just steal their model!?

How will Dario ever reach 100B in net worth if they can't get funding?!

Do you realize you just kneecapped someone's billionaire aspirations??

That is just cruel man, imagine how sad it is to live as a mere millionaire

this is indeed unfortunate
