Name three things they destroyed?

1. Figma (in progress)

2. Most entry level jobs for current graduates in white collar fields. (See hiring rates for these positions)

3. Thousands of layoffs (mostly attributed to AI use, while not 100%, the Anthropic's specific marketing push has a huge influence on this - unlike OAI and other labs)

4. All low-code products/startups

5. Web agencies who did small websites for local businesses

While AI industry push is there for all of the above, Anthropic's specific marketing/PR is specifically directed towards forced adoption of AI and burning tokens, unlike from other labs.

I was to talking to a YC founder, his biggest fear is waking up to a new Claude launch making his startup obsolete the next morning.

Similar sentiment shared with other startup founders- check on x about all VCs talking about moats against big labs.

A girl school in Iran (potentially, together with Maven/Palantir).
