Of course this is authored by people at Anthropic. Continuing their narrative that open sourced models are dangerous and that people should trust the closed sourced providers.

This of course is not an issue if you actually care about security where you would've already sandboxed your agent and put guardrails on the inputs/outputs of the model.

I would be surprised if they were not able to track this down?

fundsu were not in fact safu

I honestly prefer this as opposed to what Anthropic has done in the past which is to continue accepting users even if they don't have the capacity to serve and behind the scenes tone down everyone's limits.

I thought it would've made a lot of sense for Apple to be on this list as well.

Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

I have used local models (around 128 gb) and the big proprietary models, and while I do want local models to win, it's important we keep the expectations of local models realistic. There are many blog posts about how local models today can fully replace some of the proprietary models and in some cases its true for the much smaller proprietary models, its very clearly much more behind the larger models.

You can be far more ambiguous with your tasks with the larger proprietary models as opposed to the local models. You can achieve the similar results with local models but you need to be much more detailed in your prompt.

One of the biggest things about running these local models is that the harness matters almost just as much as the model too. Codex is optimized for GPT models, CC is optimized for Claude, Cursor has a great harness that works very well across these providers. It took me a couple of iterations of the different harnesses to find one that would work well with the smaller Qwen models to do local coding.

So because of threats to cancel their claude subscriptions and outrage from the community about the invisible guardrails, only then they decided to walk back their stance?

Seems like they would've kept the invisible guardrails if it didn't hurt their bottom line.

Congrats, you're hired at Anthropic.
