Not artisan, but a perfectly fine bagel. Hits the spot.
Summary
Anthropic is facing challenges with the Trump administration due to poor communication and inability to navigate ideological differences. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raised concerns to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that Anthropic's most powerful AI models (Mythos and Fable) could be jailbroken. The situation highlights that governing advanced AI technology requires effectively communicating in President Trump's language and understanding the administration's perspective.
