ME News update, April 4 (UTC+8). After Anthropic announced a ban on OpenClaw, its founder Peter Steinberger urgently clarified: OpenClaw is an independently operated project, and it has no connection to his personal joining of OpenAI. He revealed that OpenClaw had previously proactively invited Anthropic and more than a dozen companies to join its nonprofit organization, but Anthropic did not respond; most other companies did. Since Peter joined OpenAI in February, Anthropic, citing resource optimization, cut off Claude’s subscription support for OpenClaw. (Source: PANews)
