OpenAI is hoppin' mad about Anthropic's new Super Bowl TV ads
TL;DR
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called Anthropic's Super Bowl ads „misleading” and „authoritarian,” accusing the rival of undermining AI safety efforts.
Key Points
- In a lengthy X post, Altman labeled Anthropic as „dishonest” – a public escalation in the feud between the two AI companies.
- The ads have sparked debate about AI safety and transparency as competition between OpenAI and Anthropic intensifies.
Nauti's Take
Sam Altman complaining about misleading advertising? This from the guy whose company sold ChatGPT as a harmless writing assistant before it became clear how much the tool hallucinates and fabricates nonsense.
Anthropic is playing the same game – just with more „we're the good guys” veneer. Both firms wield safety rhetoric primarily as a competitive weapon.
The real question is: when do we stop taking this marketing squabble seriously and demand real, independent safety audits?
