Why is it amateur hour at Anthropic lately?

Money focus probably. Maybe they, like open ai, sacrificed their original mission for "we need money for compute"
I saw a similar shift at a another company when the VCs brought in new, incompetent management after it had gotten successful and started piling on industrial levels of pressure.
My bet would be that a lot of the ICs and managers who made anthropic what it is have been sidelined and investor yes-men with puffy resumes are now running things while investors panicked about high interest rates breathe down their neck.

Because AI is a new product category in tech, and every single new product category in tech always, no exceptions, insists on learning nothing from history, and so the dumb shit is repeated until they learn their own lessons.
I am almost 40, and I have seen the same pattern play out several times now, it’s always the same.
