Quoting @sumeetrm's complaint that "most Anthropic models are unusable for anything beyond coding" and that the company may not realize how bad things are (citing Boris's public response), teortaxesTex offers a tongue-in-cheek theory: Anthropic might be a hivemind of people already "Claudeceps'd", all talking in a consistent in-house argot that could displace English with enough exposure. A meme-flavored take on Anthropic's culture and its models' usability debate.
