Washington has been cold to Anthropic for the wrong bet they made in 2024, hence Anthropic has been desperately screaming all sorts of bullshit to get back attention.

Honestly their political homelessness will likely continue for a very long time, pro biz democrats in NY are losing traction; and if newsom wins 2028, they are still at disadvantage with OpenAI who promised to stay California.

Okay but who are you referring to by "pro biz democrats in NY are losing traction"; the NYC mayor election, Hochul retaining governor, Stefanik's ambitions for 2028/32, or else who? It seems the wrong take to read Mamdani's broad-based support as ideological; it was the combination of an affordability crisis plus an awful opponent who should have been replaced (plus a spoiler third candidate). Kind of like a localized 2025 update of "it's the [city] economy, stupid".
