alt Hacker NewsI have severe complaints about Anthropic's product managers on this front. Their preference for hiding, obscuring, and trying to wrest control from the user are a bit harrowing. It would be wonderful to go back to Claude Code from before March. It seems like every release destroys value for me!
It's a defensive tactic to reduce the effectiveness of distillation.
Say of that what you will, but it's not because they want to wrest control from users.
It's because they don't want Chinese companies to do exactly what Moonshot (Kimi creators) and others have done.
