Anthropic Weighs Launching New Model to Counter OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra After Calling for AI Slowdown

Anthropic is preparing to launch a new artificial intelligence model to compete with OpenAI's forthcoming GPT-6 Astra, according to multiple sources, a striking reversal for a company that has made safety concerns and calls for industry-wide slowdowns central to its public messaging. The move underscores the brutal economics of the AI arms race, where even the most vocal advocates for measured development feel compelled to accelerate their own timelines or risk irrelevance. The decision reveals a deepening tension between Anthropic's stated values and the market pressures that may ultimately force the hand of any AI company seeking to remain competitive.
