Users voted to restrict Anthropic’s Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.
“To me it shines a light on the god-complex that AI C-suite members seem to have, and their willingness to ignore people’s consent and opinions as they bulldoze their way of pushing AI,” Reese, a member of the community, told 404 Media in the aftermath.



The C-suite is just a bunch of ex-rich kids who never wanted to do any actual work to keep society moving. If all the marketing departments disappeared in the world, we would be significantly better off as a species.
They’re just rent-seeking parasites. Is it time for pinata economics?
My ex kept the baseball bat, and I’m fresh out of sticks, so I guess I’ll have to improvise.
How do you get all the candy into the baseball bat tho?
Oh, that isn’t remotely why we had the baseball bat.
