"In a series of viral commercials, AI upstart Anthropic broadcast to football fans that they should avoid AI with ads. The commercial was obviously targeting OpenAI, which plans to add ads to ChatGPT. Anthropic's bot, Claude, will never have ads, it says."
"OpenAI has historically favored quick, free, public releases of its latest AI models, such as ChatGPT. It believes that feedback from many users helps improve its models and make them safer. Anthropic, co-founded by Dario Amodei, who left OpenAI in part because of its direction, says it is taking a more cautious approach."
"The public spat between the dueling San Francisco companies showcased an intense rivalry between OpenAI and Anthropic as they go head-to-head in a battle that could shape the technology's future. While both companies are still very young, their grappling could emerge as the next big clash between brands like IBM vs. Apple, Coke vs. Pepsi or McDonald's vs. Burger King."
Anthropic and OpenAI, two leading San Francisco-based AI companies, are locked in an intense competitive battle that could define artificial intelligence's future. During the Super Bowl, Anthropic launched viral commercials criticizing OpenAI's plan to add ads to ChatGPT, pledging that Claude will remain ad-free. OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman responded by calling the ads dishonest. The rivalry stems from fundamentally different philosophies: OpenAI favors rapid, free public releases of AI models to gather user feedback and improve safety, while Anthropic, co-founded by former OpenAI executive Dario Amodei, advocates a cautious approach with controlled access before wider deployment. This clash between speed and safety represents a defining competition comparable to historic brand rivalries.
