Anthropic criticized for bio push while blocking basic open-source molecular tools
jonkhler · x · 2026-07-23
A post accuses Anthropic of hypocrisy: it is reportedly rolling out its own bio subsidiary while blocking work on basic FOSS molecular-dynamics tools and established toy systems like alanine dipeptide on safety grounds.
The writer argues this looks like a conflict of interest and says the company’s “AI for good” messaging does not match its behavior.
