- Stewart Alsop III spots a pattern: every time OpenAI ships a model threatening Anthropic, Anthropic ramps up doomerism, which he suspects is intentional — for regulatory capture and to pull attention away from the rival launch, citing the "Astra" release.
- He laments how "fake" the whole dynamic feels. Unverified personal speculation, but a notable take on competitive narrative games between AI labs.
