Mocking the rumor mill: Anthropic "curing all cancers" before OpenAI's IPO
coherence · x · 2026-09-09
A snarky reply to Gary Marcus riffing on rumors that Anthropic will announce within a month that its AI has fully cured all cancers in humans and animals — predicting OpenAI will counter with a similar announcement in three weeks, "either way - before the IPO."
Clearly satirical; the underlying rumor is unverified. Best read as commentary on frontier-lab hype cycles.
