I’m not alone in finding this against the claims of the product right?

Claude is meant to be so clever it can replace all white collar work in the next n-years, but also “you’re not using it right?” Which one is it?

Which one will convince you to buy more Claude? Please answer honestly, it's for the sake of profits.

Anthropic is a weird company where the CEO almost admits at times they are probably building the Torment Nexus, yet still feel they need to do it anyway…because someone else might do it first?

Anthropic in particular seem to be in a weird place where on the one hand they fund some real research, which is often not all roses and sunshine for them, but on the other hand, like all AI companies, they feel the need to make absurdly over-the-top claims about what's coming up Real Soon Now(TM).

I'm not quite convinced of the maximalist claims, but these two aren't incompatible. Every time we talk about a company being "mismanaged" by e.g. a private equity buyout, what we mean is that the owners had access to a large volume of high quality white collar work but couldn't figure out how to use it right.
