Engineer Quits Anthropic Over Lobbying Concerns

TLDR

A computer scientist and ML educator has finished transitioning away from Anthropic. He values the company's models and Claude Code yet declines further payments because of its government lobbying to restrict competitors. The move aligns with noted trends of users leaving LLMs on principle. He expressed hope the company will adjust its approach and indicated willingness to return if changes occur.

    @svpino I am doing the same! Anthropic models have become dumber, honestly Fable 5 refuses to solve some of my issues, while CODEX gets on with it

    @svpino Dropping the world’s most advanced Claude model because of politics is just dumb. From what I know, even the Chinese wouldn’t do something like that.

My transition away from Anthropic is now complete. I love their models. I love Claude Code. But I'm not willing to keep sending them money while they keep lobbying the government to stifle competitors. I hope Anthropic finds its way, and I'd be happy to consider them again…
