What everyone is missing about Anthropic vs the Pentagon. And: The Meta leaks are worse than you think.

When the Pentagon tried to strong-arm Anthropic into dropping its ban on AI-only kill decisions and mass domestic surveillance, the company refused. Its critics went on the attack: Anthropic and its supporters are some combination of 'hypocritical', 'naive', and 'anti-democratic'. Rob Wiblin dissects each claim finding that all three are mediocre arguments dressed up as hard truths. (Though the 'naive' one is at least interesting.)

These likely enabled the theft of around $50 billion dollars a year from Americans alone.
