Point of order: Anthropic is the most important AI company now.

People discount Google/Deepmind but a lot of the original research was done there including inventing transformers which form the basis of the other AI companies.

If anything, the amount of original and foundational research at Google is a black mark against their position now. They blew a hell of a lead.

I’m willing to discount what they did almost a decade ago (“Attention is All You Need” was 2017) in an industry that moves this quickly. The execution of an Anthropic matters more now.

Anthropic is the most hyped AI company now. Their models aren't the best, but their marketing sure is.

It really does feel like OpenAI has lost their leadership. I haven’t used a model of theirs, let alone an app, in months.
