replyI think the point is that would be catastrophic for Anthropic.
replyWho cares about Anthropic? That's the guys who are pushing for regulations to prevent people from using local models. The earlier they are gone the better

replyGoing by what Hegseth said, it bans them from relationships or partnering with Anthropic at all. No renting or selling GPUs to them; no allowing software engineers to use Claude Code; no serving Anthropic models from their clouds. Probably have to give up investments; Amazon alone has invested like $10B in Anthropic.

replyWhat open source software ? Anthropic doesn't make open source software?
replyAll open source software, because the developers might use Claude Code.
