while i do think Anthropic has good "vibes" / people / intentions, they've also done plenty of shady stuff, and there's lots of reasons to be very skeptical of them / not actually trust them much more than OpenAI however there is one large piece of empirical evidence: Claude.

George Washington Carver saw an impending disaster and instead of "raising awareness" and begging people to do what needed to be done, he made it cheaper to do the right thing

i remember someone telling me decades ago that freegans (dumpster divers) love krispy kreme because they throw all of the day-old donuts away in a single dumpster so you don't have to dig through trash bags to get them (this is not new behavior, they old sell fresh)
American show what his local Krispy Kreme donuts does to their unsold donuts at the end of the night Since being bought by a private equity firm Krispy Kreme has gradually raised the price of a dozen donuts to as much as $22 in some cities Instead of selling at lower prices.

Everything should be free: horrible, terrible idea, entails lots of suffering for all of us. Everything should be cheap: wonderful, great idea, entails broad human flourishing.

i think the reason these don't work is because they are terrifying-looking, like "will i get got" if go inside/i would rather poop myself than use them build normal public bathrooms
In San Francisco, we have 30 freestanding toilets that are available for free public use. They cost the city $14M last year, and recorded 750,000 visits, ~$19 per visit.
