Maybe anthropic wants the app better controllable by agents?
Yeah I’m 100% sure they are doing this A) for good PR (blender is a beloved app and funding them is awesome) b) to retain communication with the team for easier agent integration later c) to lobby for their AI.
I can totally understand that it doesn’t look great if blender accepts the money.
I am sure though that blender could probably need the money; open source software is criminally underfunded and those devs need money to survive at the end of the day.
I simply cannot see any good coming from Foundations receiving funds from objectively bad Corporations. Hope I’m wrong.
Wait, the implication here is that there are good corporations?
Touché. You win.
I am alterIng the deal. Pray I don’t alter it any further.
Who fucking wanted this and do we have a replacement?
Did you read the article? Blender isn’t doing AI stuff.
lol, I was confused with the comments also.
