Our AI overlord battle lines are being drawn... In real time.
> OpenAI (late on friday) - we're cutting Cursor off
> Cursor's CEO - sad, but like 5% of traffic was from yall
> Anthropic - we've always been in cursor and will continue supporting
> Elon - makes up names for sam and greg to get a laugh
> Amjad - calls out Anthropic's BS, saying they did the same thing to WindSurf
For context:
- Anthropic buys compute from SpaceXAI
- Musk previously called them Misanthropic
- 5% traffic is probably just a share of overall traffic including free, which skews towards the more costlier models
-
@amasad rightfully calls out, Anthropic did the SAME thing to WindSurf when there were rumors about OpenAI buying them, cut them off
- Anthropic also pretty much killed OpenClaw, even before Steipete joined OpenAI
- Per some OAI employees, Elon publicly admitted that there was some distillation going on
