🍭 Claude <> Trump 🤝

Anthropic signs $1 deal w/ US governemnt.

Good morning. Cobi’s desk is covered in VHS tapes labeled “Backup Plan.”

We don’t even own a VHS player.

Let’s dig in.

🍭 What’s Cookin’:

  • 1$ Government Tour

  • Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.1

  • ToolBox™

  • And Everything Else

AI + Government
🤝 Claude’s $1 Government Tour - W/ a Side of OpenAI Beef

The Bite: Anthropic will give all three branches of the U.S. government a one-year license for Claude for Enterprise and Claude for Government.

For just $1 per agency.

It’s a straight-up counterpunch to OpenAI’s move earlier this month, when it offered ChatGPT Enterprise to federal agencies for the same price.

Snacks:

  • Includes technical support + onboarding help

  • Partnered with the U.S. General Services Administration

  • OpenAI’s earlier $1 offer targeted only the executive branch

  • June: Released Claude Gov models for national security customers

  • Anthropic’s deal covers Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches

  • July: DoD signed $200M in AI contracts to Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, xAI

Why it Bites: This is an AI arms race disguised as a dollar-store clearance bin.

Both companies know once you’re wired into government systems, you’re sticky.

Now D.C. gets to A/B test ChatGPT and Claude at taxpayer-friendly prices.

Whichever one wins the “pilot program” could own the federal AI stack for the next decade.

Claude vs GPT
🤺 Anthropic releases Claude Opus 4.1

The Bite: Anthropic dropped Claude Opus 4.1, an upgrade aimed at sharper reasoning, cleaner code, and fewer “oops” moments.

It’s going head-to-head with OpenAI’s brand-new GPT-5.

The matchup is giving less “which is better?”
And giving more “which fits your wallet and workflow?”


Snacks:

  • Claude Opus 4.1: Best at pixel-perfect UI code, detailed reasoning, and surgical bug fixes

  • GPT-5: Faster, cheaper, and better for everyday dev work

  • SWE-bench: GPT-5 edges out Opus in raw coding benchmark scores

  • Figma MCP test: Opus nailed the design; GPT-5 got the gist but missed details

  • Token burn: GPT-5 used ~90% fewer tokens on some tasks (aka much cheaper)

  • Opus context window = 200K tokens; GPT-5 doubles it to 400K

Why it bites: Choosing between these isn’t Coke vs. Pepsi — it’s more like a Swiss watch vs. a smart-watch.

GPT-5 is the budget-friendly, all-day workhorse.

Opus 4.1 is the high-precision tool you pull out when the client’s watching and “good enough” isn’t good enough.
