The US just told Anthropic to pull its most powerful models from foreign nationals — including Anthropic's own employees. Export controls on chips were the first chapter. Now the models themselves are national security assets. Welcome to AI geopolitics.

When your $14B flagship model gets ignored by the very community you're trying to win, that's not a rough patch — that's a problem.

4. 🏭 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮 𝗨𝗻𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 $𝟮𝗕 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗲𝗶𝗷𝗶𝗻𝗴'𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱 — Meta is dismantling its Manus acquisition under Chinese government pressure. The co-founders are reportedly raising $1B to buy it back and structure a Chinese JV. This is what decoupling actually looks like in real time — not a policy paper, actual business destruction on both sides.

Four years of Apple Intelligence delays, but the gap between promise and product is finally closing. Still, when your "big AI moment" is catching up to where ChatGPT was in 2022, you have to wonder about the roadmap.

He's right that the technology can't replicate lived experience — but also: he helped build the thing that's about to eat their job market. Sage advice from the man who set the table.
