With all of the cozying up to the Pentagon, and continuous pronouncements of how their AI is committing questionable attacks and raids on external companies, it's almost as if Altman and Amodei are trying their level best to get OpenAI and Anthropic (and all of their infrastructure) labeled as legitimate military targets by foreign adversaries.

I just don't understand their endgame here.

All of the always-on-top floating top and side bars almost completely block all the actual content. It's pretty much preventing me from doing anything useful on the trips to/from work each day. Now I actually notice how bad public transport really is...
