Hope the dude is ok, can't imagine getting so offended by these ads

View on HN

I hadn't watched these before, but wow the AI wars are no joke. "Betrayal", "Deception", "Violation", "Treachery"... It's like the Cola Wars, but 10x more personal.

When I first saw these titles I thought they were cheesey. Then I started to appreciate the advertising team's distillation of the core user pain point into a single word at the intro. Completely changed my initial perspective!

This is hilarious. I did not know until now. Black mirror episode for this era is staying with ads :)

Interesting part of the making of these ads - "While Claude helped behind the scenes – synthesising research and streamlining production – Anthropic and Mother say the concept, direction, scripts, performances and production were led by human teams."

I wonder how much the CEO of ChatGPT used his own weapon to counter (very weakly, imo) this human-made attack ad.

No need to wonder there are em dashes everywhere — —

And where do you think AIs learned to use em dashes? Anyone who knows a modicum of typography uses em dashes. There’s a reason devices like iOS automatically convert double hyphens to em dashes (or straight quotes to curly quotes).

Only young people who grew up texting and eliding standard punctuation find em dashes unfamiliar.

At least he can't levy arbitrary and capricous tariffs because a commercial upset his fragile ego

Not yet. Just wait until he has all the power.

These videos have high chance of aging like milk... We'll see what Anthropic does 10 years from now. Remember "don't be evil"

It was bullshit then, it’s bullshit now.

I pay ChatGPT 20 bucks a month, or whatever the subscription is. I get massive value out of this, Sam Altman is paying for my computing power. I’m paying a tenth(or less) of what the actual price is. Once that no longer applies, I will ditch ChatGPT and probably build my own LLM computer.

So thanks Sam for giving me cheap computing power.

That is so interesting man, keep us updated.

Well played Anthropic!
