🍭 Meta’s Mind Moves, Claude’s Cold Mood 🧊

Good morning. Zuck’s hoarding IQ points like NFTs in 2021 and Claude just hit you with “new phone, who dis?” vibes.

Let’s dig in.

🍭 What’s Cookin’:

• Meta raids OpenAI for brainpower

• Claude isn’t your therapist (but people keep trying)

• Everything Else to prove you’re not emotionally attached to your LLM

Meta
🧠 Meta Snags OpenAI’s Reasoning Guy

The Bite: Meta just hired Trapit Bansal, a pivotal OpenAI researcher and co-creator of its o1 reasoning model, to supercharge its new AI reasoning lab.

He joins a stacked team under Zuck’s $100M talent blitz, where Meta’s hunting for its own reasoning model.


Snacks: 

• Bansal helped kickstart OpenAI’s reinforcement learning research in 2022

• Meta’s team also added ex-Scale CEO Alexandr Wang and others

• Zuckerberg’s offering $100M+ comp to build a reasoning model to rival OpenAI’s o3

• Rumors say Meta tried (and failed) to buy startups like Safe Superintelligence

• OpenAI’s next reasoning model is reportedly open-sourcing soon 👀

Why it bites: Zuck’s building a brain trust like it’s a draft for the AI Olympics — but OpenAI still owns the scoreboard.

If Meta wants agents that actually “think,” they’ll need more than vibe engineers and ex-GitHub execs.

This is less “build fast and break things” and more “build smart or get left behind.”

Anthropic
🛋️ Claude Just Wants to Work, Not Talk About Your Feelings

The Bite: Anthropic dropped a study showing most Claude users don’t treat the chatbot like a therapist, like Sam Altman is going around saying.

Only 2.9% of conversations are emotional or personal.

Turns out, people mostly just want help with work.


Snacks: 

• “Companionship + roleplay” = <0.5% of chats

• Most chats are productivity-related: writing, planning, learning

• Long convos (50+ messages) occasionally morph into coaching or emotional support

• Claude rarely resists requests unless they cross safety lines

• Even emotional chats tend to skew optimistic by the end

Why it bites: The “AI best friend” trope makes headlines, but reality’s more boring:

Claude’s your unpaid intern, not your emotional support squirrel.

Still, if your self-worth hinges on Claude remembering your birthday, maybe touch some grass.
