future job title: data producer at web
As Anthropic prepares to IPO for over $1 trillion, a reminder of Dario Amodeiâs words shortly after founding the company:
âDistributed human labor is being used to train AI models by large, centralized actors, who concentrate the resulting profits while in the long run making the human labor obsolete.â
In other words, this IPO will be built off the backs of the worldâs creatives - who will get nothing out of it except obsolescence.
It is a totally unjust transfer of wealth and opportunity from artists, writers, musicians & other creatives to a tiny tech elite.
I hope it is remembered as such.
(this quote is from a document he wrote that was unsealed in Bartz v. Anthropic)
crazy how claude can take a doc and know itâs a scam right away. last year i fed a lease into claude after signing and it told me to hire a lawyer pronto, then laid out the whole scam.
donât trust. verify.
one stopping point was claude asking if it could add a lib called cf-wasm/og and a rust tool called satori so it could make open graph social sharing cards for the site it built.
the library had less than 300 stars on github but claude surfaced it anyway. github.com/fineshopdesign/cfâŚ
