Post says Anthropic is treating open source as a threat to its business strategy
ctjlewis · x · 2026-07-25
A reply quotes Garry Tan saying Anthropic has implicitly admitted that open source is a real threat because it competes with the company's corporate economic strategy.
The remark frames the issue as one of market structure: once a company reaches an enormous private valuation, it should expect open competition, and the poster points to the secondary market as evidence that the upside has already been rich.
