AI researcher Shahules786 sparked a controversial debate on X, stating: "Harvey is going to achieve AGI faster than Anthropic."
This comment was in response to another tweet joking that "You can only be considered a post-training provider if you work with Harvey." It has triggered discussions within the industry about whether vertical AI companies focused on specific domains (like Harvey in legal) or general-purpose LLM labs (like Anthropic) have the upper hand in the race toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
