It's been a rough couple of weeks if your name is Anthropic. First they shipped a model that throttled AI researchers, then the U.S. government shut down their best models entirely, and now they're promising everything will be fine again real soon. Meanwhile, Midjourney decided image generation is boring and they'd rather build full-body scanners instead. Also, OpenAI poached the guy who literally invented the tech everyone uses.
