Is this not the guy who is on the payroll of Anthropic? Not because he is wrong, but because there is so much marketing going on in this space nowadays.

Who, me? I'm still independent - I have a disclosures section on my blog here: https://simonwillison.net/about/#disclosures

Anthropic sometimes give me free credits (so I can try out preview features) and gave me a ticket to their conference a few months ago.
