The consumer product is losing them money and the possibly profitable enterprise product (API) is a smaller % of revenue and in an increasingly competitive niche. The constant disingenuous baiting and switching between the two whenever convenient is very tiresome.
Perhaps I am just blind to consumer markets, but it is not self evident for me, at least. When I think of successful consumer products, I think of stuff like Coca Cola, the light bulb, the CD, acrylic paint. Are you saying that Claude is as successful consumer products as the Ford model T, and Nike sneakers? I am not buying it.
I think speed to market and revenue of the company are nonsensical measures of successful consumer products. Like did Theranos have a successful consumer product? How about Juul?

That is a different argument and not one I'm engaging with. The claim was made that Anthropic has no product, which is just obviously false.
Really? The most successful consumer product? of all time?
Among them, clearly.
Self evidently so, I suppose.

Anthropic, founded just 5 years ago, has revenue comparable to all of Nike.

No? Theranos generated under $1MM in total revenue. Juul is obviously a highly successful consumer product.
The anti-ai lab crowd is becoming increasingly cult like and putting their blinders up.
