      @Blender Anthropic built Claude, the AI used by Palantir.
      Take their dirty, bloody money. I dont want to support technofascism. So... I won't need Blender anymore.

          @Blender I sure hope you have fun, "...pursuing projects independently, and to focus on building tools..." without a user-base.

              @Blender We did. It still sucks. This is a TERRIBLE look for the project. Anthropic and the whole "AI" project in general has been nothing but destructive to anything it touches. They're taking OUR creations, whether it be 3D models, drawings, music, writing, code, you name it WITHOUT PERMISSION and then try to sell us back a slopified, soulless version of it. Everyone has receipts! How is this not getting through?!

                  @Blender That sounds like a horrible idea. Even if Anthropic doesn't get any influence, this is a massive blow to your public image.

                                @Blender this doesn't make it any better. This company feeds on the visual and engineering creativity of your users and developers. Why would you take money from a company that is by design non-ethical?

                                      The problem is the ORIGIN of the money.

                                      There must be an ethic about who is accepted as a patron.

                                      "This is like accepting money from the nazi party, the mafia, Russia, Donald Trump and Israel, all combined. 🤬🤬🤬"

                                      David (@DBG3D@masto.es)

                                      @Blender@mastodon.social I know @tonroosendaal@mstdn.social is not anymore the head of Blender. But I expect he has something to say against this. I never expected than a LIE like this: "Anthropic is an AI research and development company that creates reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems." will be published on Blenders web site. Long thread about Claude source code: https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/116324676116121930 AI DOESN'T work. Is a con machine that enlarges inequality in the world. It's an earthquake affecting the lives of thousands of workers forced to use this stochastic parrots to produce code that doesn't work. Even their own code is sub par. Workers fired after train this failed machine. The usage of natural resources for datacenters on strained areas, or the raise of electricity bills for the datacenters to run this monsters is well reported. Along the ill effects on health of residents of nearby datacenters. Not to mention Anthropic is on trial for STEALING materials to training Claude. https://m.independent.ie/business/world/anthropic-faces-trial-over-downloads-used-to-train-its-ai/a1928954643.html https://www.authorsalliance.org/2025/07/26/bartz-v-anthropic-what-are-some-additional-takeaways-and-where-do-things-go-from-here/ EDIT: Added link with current information about the Anthropic case. Anthropic is raising their token prices. Idiotic employees are paying from their own pockets this tokens when the ones bought by their employeers companies (that spent thousands of euros into this fucked technology) ran out, so they can keep running prompts and not lose their jobs. Blender users must reject this. The whole planet is at risk with the demeanors and illegalities of this AI companies. This is like accepting money from the nazi party, the mafia, Russia, Donald Trump and Israel, all combined. 🤬🤬🤬 #b3d #ai #aislop #anthropic #fund
