David Sacks calls Anthropic's small-model 'scare campaign' timing 'very suspicious'

David Sacks publicly questioned Anthropic's 'scare campaign' against small models, calling its timing 'very suspicious'.
His argument: the enterprise market is shifting toward small models taking share, and 'lo and behold, coincidentally' Anthropic is now running a fear-based campaign against them — implying it's defensive positioning by a large-model vendor rather than a pure safety warning.
