>Anthropic genuinely cares

I believe Anthropic may have functional emotions in some sense. Not necessarily identical to human emotions, but analogous processes

If you accept that "qualia" is a coherent concept" then surely emotions require qualia. And I'm really not buying the idea that current gen AI is capable of subjective experience in anything like the sense people usually mean.

It would not at all surprise me if corporations could have emotional states.

A huge part of the above-water corporate iceberg is the people and your interactions with them, so the company does take on a proxy "emotional signature" based on with whom you interact and the context of the situation. I don't see how a computer program trained on the human knowledge corpus does anything more than parrot observed behaviours without the backing biological systems. Mirroring pretty much the opposite of genuine emotion.
