Why does the company that's asking change the analysis here? Shouldn't they know better than anyone the limitations of their product?

Are you implying that Anthropic specifically pushes for their models to be used inappropriately as long as they're not the victims of that inappropriate use? Because I haven't seen that at all with Anthropic, they've been consistently the most subdued and reserved AI company out there, barely marketing their products at all and when they do, doing so very carefully.

Your reactions in this thread are understandable as reactions against the oversaturation of AI, but it's not really fair to paint all of the companies with the same brush when Anthropic exists to be a foil to Altman's irresponsible push for saturation.



Id say that if a candidate can demonstrably 5x their performance with LLMs then I'd be keen to hire them.

By banning LLM usage I think Anthropic is just indirectly admitting that their assessments cant distinguish lameduck LLM reliance and genuine increases in productivity.

This is certainly their prerogative but it's still a pretty bad look - like banning calculators in a math exam.
