Whoa, Antrophic,etc are really running afraid that their IPO's are gonna crash when people realize that the open models are Good Enough(TM).
So I'd put it at 30% that this is a ruse, say that Qwen 3.5,etc is tainted by training by them and start issuing DMCA takedowns to protect the IPO valuation (Or they'll hold off on that, getting a DMCA takedown could backfire spectacularly if others do that to them).
