- The post argues that Anthropic is increasingly isolated as the only major AI company not backing open source.
- It says the company will likely keep lobbying, and predicts the messaging will shift from “we’re not trying to ban open source” to attempts to restrict who can use, contribute to, or power these models.
- The author’s bottom line is that the industry should watch Anthropic closely because the practical effect would still be to kneecap open source AI.
