Everyone seems to be unsurprised by this move, but I’m genuinely shocked. What a shoot your own foot business decision. Google, evil though it be, doesn’t post the text of your gmails in its search results because who would consider using Gmail after that? This is the llm equivalent. Am I missing something?

This data is useful for reinforcement learning. All the others do it.

And most importantly, you can just opt-out.

Just because all the others do it doesn’t make it right. Many users chose Anthropic exactly because they were not like the others.

Oh the naivety.

Sooner or later they all become the same, soon after "investors" or "shareholders" arrive.

They already arrived. Google was one of the main investors of Anthro.
