    I did find an update on that funding, btw. Anthropic already took money from Qatar (the QIA), but the amount isn’t known - likely around $100M. The UAE has yet to happen, but if does, it would be “hundreds of millions”.

      Interesting. I appreciate you doing the digging to check. It’s frustrating that people spent so much time looking at the fact that Anthropic had an uncrossed red line, they didn’t look at all the red lines that were already crossed - in the very article about those supposed red lines. Such is PR I guess.

      I suppose you saw that “He Will Not Divide Us 2.0” letter from OpenAI and Google employees who promised to stand behind Anthropic. Never mind the fact OpenAI split… Doesn’t anybody know Google already does mass surveillance of Americans?

      …I ramble.
