Not sure I care overly much about the fate of the amoral corporation getting fucked over by the fascist regime. They’re both juggernauts, and I would love to see them damage each other.
Remember, the falling out wasn’t about the morality of the unsupervised spicy autocomplete killing people, it was about who had the liability when the AI went inevitably wrong. Had the DoD accepted the liability, I’m certain Anthropic would have sold the the stupidest version of skynet imaginable.
I’m on the fence about whether I agree with you because it’s kind of a toss-up as to whether that’s true in my mind. Put on the flip side of that, they were already neck deep in with the DoD anyway, so your argument is convincing, in that respect at least.
