The narrative of a rising philosopher class in the AI industry is just not plausible, I'm afraid—whatever anyone might say or sincerely think.
Don't get me wrong, may all my philosopher friends get cool gigs at big AI labs! But it's structurally impossible that human philosophy could have any say in the ultimate destination of the top models, or top model (i.e. AGI).
AI is a market phenomenon, subject to extreme competitive selection. It is simply not believable that any frontier AI lab could be optimizing for anything other than the present value of future discounted cash flows, simply because it would not have made it this far. And if the philosophers on staff are not driving some enlightened divergence from this objective function, then those are just called workers.
Philosophy will probably matter greatly in the AI era, as a solution to the madness that AI will indirectly bring about, but it does not at all follow that any human philosophy or philosopher will have any say in that which AI brings about.

@elonmusk @yacineMTB @elonmusk This is Dario, this is my throwaway account. Ok man, I cant be mad at you. Will open source our weights in 2 weeks, may the best AI win!

I was clearly wrong about Anthropic. They are obviously currently the leader in AI. No company has released a model as good as Mythos/Fable and they will undoubtedly have Mythos 2 ready soon.
And I would never cut them off in a way that hurt them badly, even as a competitor. That’s not my style.
Tesla open sourced its patents and we made the Supercharger network available to all competitors, even though we could have made it a walled garden.
SpaceX launches competing satellite systems with no increase in price or use of unfair terms.
Even my worst enemies can attack me on this platform.

SpaceXAI now has a legitimate frontier model that competes with opus 4.8. Also, Anthropic is completely reliant on the compute rented from SpaceXAI
If Elon wanted to kill anthropic, he could. Iirc the compute lease was short term, 6 months from May without renewal promise. GG

@yacineMTB Winning was never in the set of possible outcomes for Anthropic
