The post argues that Anthropic and Dario Amodei have drained some of the excitement, optimism, and joy out of AI, even around their own models.
The author frames that as both a complaint and a reminder: humans can swing toward radically different futures, from dystopia to utopia. The point is less about a specific product than about the mood-setting influence of a leading AI company and its CEO.
