Summary
Anthropic is evaluating a potential new model as OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra gains traction with enterprise customers. The move comes even as Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei publicly pushes for slower development of AI capabilities. The tension highlights the conflict between competitive pressure and safety rhetoric at frontier model labs.
Bubble analysis
This is a story about model competition and corporate strategy, with no investment, valuation or capex figures, so it offers almost no direct evidence on whether AI is in an investment bubble. At most it shows frontier labs are still fighting hard for enterprise customers, hinting at competitive demand, but that is an indirect signal and cannot settle the bubble question.
