Does anyone not feel like there's something wrong with this? and that the thousands of Anthropic employees should not be able to make money off of this?

They looted all human knowledge, will displace jobs, they're disposable themselves, and no strong moat.

Why is such a company even allowed to be IPOd?

Because all it takes is for good men to do nothing.

Our government is ultimately beholden to those it actually serves. If it does not appear to be serving you and me, maybe it is serving someone else.

money is god in this country, morality rides secondary to profitability. our industry is full of ppl who genuinely view a conscience or code of ethics as nothing more than road blocks to the next raise
