Anthropic’s $1.5B JV looks like humans embedded in client offices

Anthropic’s $1.5B JV is being framed as humans on site, not just software

The post argues that Anthropic’s $1.5B joint venture effectively sells something very human: engineers embedded inside client offices to make deployments work in practice.

Its point is that even top-tier models still need on-site help to actually land inside enterprise workflows, and that this changes how vendors should think about pricing and value delivery. The rhetorical question at the end asks whether your last deliverable still justifies its price once you account for how much of it could already be machine-written.
