Anthropic are strongly rumored to be about to have their first profitable quarter. Stories are circulating of companies surprised at how expensive their LLM bills are becoming from usage by their staff. I think this is because OpenAI and Anthropic have both found product-market fit. Enterprise customers are now paying API prices I think they've found product-market fit And they're ramping up The AI-failure stories around this are pretty thin We also know the labs are spending a lot API revenue is becoming less important April is a new inflection point Enterprise customers are now paying API p...

NY-12 congressional candidate Alex Bores speaks during a campaign event. | Bloomberg via Getty Images By the time that the Democratic primary for New York's 12th congressional district wraps up in June, Anthropic and OpenAI will have spent millions on their battle over the political future of AI: who gets to regulate it, or who will be punished for trying to regulate it. But the real winner of their feud may be the guy they're currently fighting over: a once-obscure New York state assemblyman, who they've Streisand-effected into becoming the poster child for AI safety regulation. Ever since l...

Someone used my card details (I don’t know how, I only buy from reputed dealers and mostly use Apple Pay) to create a Anthropic account with a fake email address and charged me $103.46 across three transactions in March. I have an account, the fraudulent account uses a completely different email address. • My bank filed a chargeback. Anthropic disputed it and won (CVV/address matched because my real billing address was used) • My bank then withdrew the dispute and told me to contact Anthropic directly • Anthropic’s AI support agent (Fin) acknowledged the fraud, said refunds could be p...

On Monday, Pope Leo XIV unveiled an encyclical letter addressing the societal implications of artificial intelligence. The letter, titled Magnifica Humanitas, warned that the "use of AI is never a purely technical matter: when it enters processes that affect people's lives, it touches on rights, opportunities, status and freedom." Alongside him was Anthropic cofounder and interpretability team lead Christopher Olah, representing a partnership between the Catholic Church and one of the biggest players in AI. The letter elicited a wide range of reactions from in and around the tech industry. Ne...

It's possible that AI was used to write parts of Pope Leo XIV's latest encyclical about AI's impact on humanity. An analysis by Linch Zhang posted on the forum LessWrong found certain paragraphs of Magnifica Humanitas to be between 40 percent and 100 percent written by AI, according to the popular AI detector Pangram. The document includes known traits that appear in AI-generated writing, such as a higher use of the word "genuinely" - which crops up in writing by Anthropic's Claude - than previous encyclicals, Zhang says. Another person ran the text of the document section by section through ...

I wasn't even on my computer or Claude on May 25 when they said there was suspicious activity. Any ideas about what I should do? I emailed Anthropic a response but am not sure what else I can or should do. I'm furthered worried that if someone who is trying to do something weird on my account has has access to my account...it just makes me feel very concerned and like I am probably not the only case. https://preview.redd.it/k9rlklponj3h1.png?width=1028&format=png&auto=webp&s=de46e3c86a80b1c491d50fcda3a7e7ba7dfa7d76

What are your assumptions?

Christopher Olah, Anthropic cofounder and head of interpretability research, spoke at the Vatican yesterday during the presentation of Pope Leo XIV’s AI encyclical Magnifica Humanitas.

The original post was removed by Reddit Filters, so I made new one with same content. I just got my results back today and managed to snag the Early Adopter badge as well. Following up on my recent DP-600 certification, I really wanted to validate my architecture skills specifically on the Anthropic side. The exam covers a lot of practical ground on prompt engineering for tool use, managing context windows efficiently, and handling Human-in-the-Loop workflows.

Corey Quinn criticizes Anthropic's Christopher Olah for influencing papal encyclical Magnifica Humanitas to validate AI limitations.

Good news: I just got a human email reply from a problem I submitted to Anthropic support. Bad news: Problem occurred in *January.* They're literally running a 4 month backlog on support requests. Probably more than that now, if they're spending time responding to 4 months stale requests. The email I got didn't address the problem at all, just asked "Is this still a problem?"

The model became visible for a short amount of time on Claude; besides that, new strings mentioning Mythos have been added. \> Access to the Claude Mythos model in Claude Code and Claude Security. It still doesn't mean the general public will have access to this exact model, according to Anthropic's earlier communication. source : testingcatalog https://preview.redd.it/tb7riwqs8z2h1.png?width=900&format=png&auto=webp&s=743f7570a7a5d8bc662f49ef24060f5e9cde258b

A month ago, I was hacked through the **Max 20** gifting feature and charged $220. I inquired about a refund with fin, and they said they would forward it to the relevant team, but I haven't received a single email for a month. So today, I asked fin to provide details about our past conversations and the refund status, but they claimed they didn't know anything. fin told me to go to Account > Get Help to request a refund, but the problem is, fin is the chatbot that opens through that "Get Help" option! I even sent an email to '@usersafety', but the only response I received was "Click A...
