Straight up using Anthropic’s branding huh? I guess I’m not surprised. It’s Microsoft. And they won’t play fair and confusing the branding of Cowork is likely purposeful. Anthropic is maybe desperate to get their funding after losing government contracts from all the agencies.
At some point the old MS playbook will be applied here and Anthropic will be extinguished. Like Google, Microsoft will probably reap the profits of AI by using existing customer contracts and distribution and immense capital to make up for the lack of innovation. Doesn’t seem fair that these mega corps can be far behind but catch up with capital and incumbent advantages.
