I agree with SnoopJ here but I want to put a subtly different spin on this and make a somewhat more non-negotiable request of my audience. You don't have to agree with us that it's OK to take the money (and indeed some of my friends do not) but *do not harass* foundations when news like this comes out, and I would really like you to consider the perspective of the fundraisers here.
gotta be honest guys I don't think blender accepting anthropic's money is really that different from them accepting money from netflix, nvidia, meta, google et al.?
like okay I'm not *happy* about it either but at least their explicit policy is "sure we'll take your money but you get no project control in return"
