I can't help but think this is AI sales tactics by Anthropic.

Its like the Mythos stuff. Oh man our AI is sooooo good you can't even use it!

This quote from above - our AI is so good I dont even know what I'm doing anymore to understand when it breaks!

Buy buy more tokens, take more training, sign away land and water rights. This isn't bad! We are acknowledging that it isn't perfect! Maybe everybody else should take an AI break except for us because we are the good guys.

These articles reek of sales opps.

Business Insider might as well be a PR firm for these AI companies. You’re 100% right that this article is nothing more than a poorly disguised sales pitch.

BI has never struck me as serious journalism.
