So there's this wide range of levels of interaction.

They can go both ways.

You can be a lab partnered with a big tech company.

That big tech company can have a really established government relations group that is actually helping you get through to the admin.

On the flip side, you could have a big tech company that is competing with you or frustrated by your business and is actively trying to put their thumb on the scale the other way.

So I'm sure we'll learn more in the future.

Many of these CEOs have business relationships with Anthropix, so we'll see how all of this develops.

And they're always renegotiating these contracts too, which makes things more complex, and they're competing across multiple markets.

So expect the 4D chess to be on full display all summer long in Washington.

Anyway, what else is going on?

Meta is doing a 180, according to Amir over at The Information, trying to be the vanguard of token minimizing.

I think the token maxing, token minimizing thing is so silly because do you know where maxing comes from really?

Like it comes from gamer lingo usually.

I don't know if looks maxing community was the first one.

They certainly made it really go really viral.

Yeah.

Min maxing.

And that's what I'm getting at.

Like you shouldn't be token maxing or token minning, you should be token min-maxing.

And the idea of min-maxing is when you're in a video game, you want to get the most resources for the lowest cost.
