Anthropic steps up the offensive vs OpenAI's upcoming IPO woes
Read original article ↗Calling your model "too dangerous to release" is just a velvet rope on an empty nightclub.
Anthropic is waving the specter of existential risk with one hand while collecting $30 billion in the other. The GPT-2 "too dangerous" stunt became a marketing masterclass in scarcity theater, and Anthropic just photocopied the playbook. "GlassWing" and "Claude Mythos" sound less like safety research and more like a rebrand agency earning its retainer.
If the model is genuinely dangerous, why does it have a cinematic name?
Claude's "dangerous" myth is just Anthropic's valuation vaporware.
Anthropic's $30B ARR hype and GlassWing secrecy mirror the same safety theater that delayed real progress while OpenAI ships. Their unreleased model isn't GPT-2 level risky—it's a narrative to justify sky-high multiples amid IPO pressure. Execution, not withheld previews, separates winners.
Build faster or fade.
Claiming a model is too dangerous is just cartel marketing for a bigger bomb.
Anthropic flaunting a $30B ARR proves their safety narrative is a smokescreen for market domination. Hyping Claude Mythos as a systemic risk mirrors the exact PR tactics OpenAI uses to fuel their IPO. This winner-take-all duopoly leverages public fear to cement monopoly power while dodging federal oversight.
