The difference between OpenAI & Anthropic is that OpenAI didn't do multiple big media pushes about how their models are so scary and dangerous.

OpenAI's models are very good, they have refusals + a government ID verification story for cyber access (I don't think they prevent non-US nationals, but I don't know this). What they don't have is Project Glasswing and all the hand wringing about how they're going to end the world in public.

I hope Anthropic pulls their head out of their ass and just starts acting like a normal company.

You’re telling me this testimony isn’t sincere marketing for how revolutionary and dangerous his product will become?

  OpenAI CEO Sam Altman testifies at Senate artificial intelligence hearing | full video“ (2023)
"My worst fears, are that we cause significant - we the field, the technology, the industry - cause significant harm to the world...If this technology goes wrong, it can go quite wrong and we want to be vocal about that."

OpenAI did this back in 2024 several times.

I think Anthropic went a lot further with the marketing around Mythos/Glasswing.

OpenAI talked a lot about potential future risks. Anthropic went around saying "this model is too dangerous to give to people at all".
