I'm happy to give my identity to Anthropic and crush my competition with irrational fear about privacy and personal data. This is a serious competitive advantage and a moat.

Is this satire? I really can't tell.

Bragging about a strategy isn't very strategic. So the comment's purpose is something else.

Warren Buffett brags about his strategy. Jeff Bezos brags about his strategy. The reason they can brag is, even if it's simple, competition doesn't have the culture to copy/follow it. (My post is literally downvoted)

Losing privacy has ZERO downsides for ordinary people. Nobody cares about your data. Literally, put all your life on a YouTube channel and see how many views that Video will get. ZERO.

Irrational fears (especially if it's conspiratorial) => Sub-optimal decision.

Just like Buffett, Bezos, my strategy is simple -- go against firms that are making irrational decision. It's the same framework to adopt cloud, AI and many frontier technologies and disrupt

Given they have laughable uptime and I have yet to find a useful project mostly written by claude... I doubt it.

Huh? Limited uptime means you can't write projects with it? I assume downtime means you can't host on it ...

I wont buy expensive hardware to self host a model thats outdated within 2 months. Also, yeah, uptime is important if you dont self host.
