I'd say Gemini over Anthropic. Google's overcaution literally hamstrung its own AI progression efforts. Anthropic is just all talk, no bluster, when it comes to safety and ethics. If they were ah so concerned about AI safety, they wouldn't go around marketing Fable's hacking capabilities like they are now.

None of the labs are blameless. For instance, after the recent announcement of a 2-week frontier RL pause from OpenAI, Anthropic declined to communicate a substantial parallel pause [1], although they discussed also briefly pausing some "high-risk" runs.

Anthropic has been the most vocal about AI risks, but it feels like all the big 3 have bought into the "others will do it if we don't do it first" narrative at this point. It increasingly gives "just following orders" vibes.
