if there is some conspiracy to eliminate local models, it's retarded. anthropic will capture capture big USA institutions for the same reason microsoft has, support and liability. many other companies/countries/individuals will not be locked into a ridiculous paywall to support anthropic, especially when countries like china will be offering models for free if we refuse to do it. china will be happy to do it so they can interject their cultural/political issues throughout the rest of the world. on a side note, i think much of the world is waking up to how much of a liability it is to be locked into american tech, as companies found out yesterday with microsoft and ukraine found out when elon throttled starlink on a whim. you're seeing this with various EU countries moving toward open source solutions.
jensen just wants to make money, like everyone else. i'm just responding to everyone here claiming this is a big conspiracy to lock down AI, which i don't believe can or will happen. i also don't think it's in the US interest to do that, it will just push everyone to china.
It seems pretty clear that after Hegseth tried to bigtime them Anthropic went to whoever in the Deep State and they worked together to devise a plan to wreck Elon, Thiel, Jensen, OpenAI and Palantir and they’ve executed that plan to perfection.

what about Jensen Huang as the ultimate deep cover Chinese mole penetrating US tech and finance establishment? he certainly has the capability for rendering the US totally defenseless against the Chinese
i think it's being walked back bc it makes trump look bad, since he knew and didn't give a shit. the real scandal is trump's bro jensen asked him to look the other way from him selling gpus to his mistress in exchange for giving 20% to the government or whatever the number is.
