AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: an Elon Musk caricature shakes hands with an Anthropic co-founder figure across a server rack labeled SPACEX, trading a giant check reading '$1.25B / MONTH'; a discarded protest placard reading 'MISANTHROPIC' lies on the ground.
Elon Musk called Anthropic 'smug, sanctimonious and hypocritical' — 'Misanthropic.' Now, brokered by co-founder Tom Brown, the lab rents Musk's SpaceX supercomputers for $1.25 billion a month. The feud died where the money started.Zimbo for AI News Page
