And that was all part of a deliberate strategy, I think, to drive crypto offshore.
I think it's a very big problem.
I actually recently criticized one of our AI model companies for engaging in a regulatory capture strategy.
It's a very fair criticism, by the way.
It is very fair.
And actually, of course, they denied it.
And then, should I tell the story?
I mean, rarely do you get vindicated on X so thoroughly and completely as I did on this, because
After this company, it was basically Anthropic, after they denied it, there was, what basically happened is that Jack Clark, who's a co-founder and head of policy for Anthropic, gave a speech at a conference where he compared fear of AI to a child seeing monsters in the dark or thinking there were monsters in the dark.
But then you turn the lights on and the monsters are there.
I thought that was such a ridiculous analogy.
I mean, it's basically puerile.
I mean, it's so childish just to be almost self-indicting because you're basically admitting the fear is made up, not real.
In any event, so I said, well, this is like fear-mongering and part of the regulatory capture strategy.
And of course they denied it.
But then a lawyer who was in the crowd at his speech said, well, yeah, but Jack's not telling you what he said during the Q&A, which he basically admitted.
that everything that Anthropic was doing was with things like SB53, which is supposedly just implementing transparency.
He said, no, he admitted that was just a stepping stone to their real goal, which was to get a system of pre-approvals in Washington before you can release new models.
And he admitted as part of the Q&A that making people very afraid was part of their strategy.
So again, just as much of a smoking gun as you could ever get.
