(ie, even a pause in AI training isn't going to stop the train where AI flips the economy upside down, we've barely even seen the impact of the current frontier)
This cycle of new model running at full quantisation and then nerfed few days / weeks after premiere should be called out. Anthropic should also drop the adaptive reasoning scam.
If I pay for Fable, I should get full, not nerfed model at honest pricing.
Regulators should investigate them.
OpenAI is no different. Astra has basically the same problem.
I'm thinking they're all running out of physical resources. It's the DotCom bubble all over again; rollout of the physical infrastructure that's necessary to keep all of the pie-in-the-sky promises will not happen on the timescales that investors can work with, and they will panic when they realize this.
EDIT: And, frankly, I can't wait. I'm tired of the sketchy and dishonest way these companies are behaving.
I was rooting for Anthropic 2 years ago, but now I have become an extremely bitter customer. Just another version of OpenAI, if not shittier.
