The AI-assistant wars heat up with Claude Pro, a new ChatGPT Plus rival. I'm quoted in this piece about the new Claude Pro $20/month subscription from Anthropic:
Willison has also run into problems with Claude's morality filter, which has caused him trouble by accident: "I tried to use it against a transcription of a podcast episode, and it processed most of the text before—right in front of my eyes—it deleted everything it had done! I eventually figured out that they had started talking about bomb threats against data centers towards the end of the episode, and Claude effectively got triggered by that and deleted the entire transcript."
