Oh? Do tell.
I never had any trouble with resumes being slurped up by corporate software, nor has anything else I've written in LibreOffice and saved as .doc or .docx been a problem to anyone using Word.

And, as a writer, my manuscripts are read just fine by editors, and I've had no trouble dealing with copy-edited galleis sent me to proofread.

Odd that you're having issues.

a) 21% of the US is functionally illiterate.
        26% cannot read at 10th grade level
b) I've been reading for over 10 years that most Americans don't read three books a year.
c) Guilty - between myself, my wife, our kids and grandkids, thousands of Americans don't read a book a year (to lower the average that we skew).

Skimming the comments, y'all mised the point: Anthropic made $5B in revenue, while loosing *many* billions in operating costs.

So, how much longer will they be in business, before they collapse (and vulture capital pulls out)?
Also, given the reported in the media emails that *said* that the CEO *chose* not to pay originally "because it was too complicated", they were looking at a 100% chance that they'd be found liable.

Collapse of the AI bubble, coming soon.

Comment The "AI" bubble (Score 1) 160

First, it's not AI. It's typeahead writ large.

And Cory Doctorow reports on a report that says 95% of all companies using AI are finding it a complete fail. Meanwhile, ROI on AI for the companies making it is on the order of a billion or three... while they're burning through hundreds of billions in venture capital.
