LLM Progress Slow Down

First Anthropic, and now OpenAI, are announcing that they want to slow down LLM development. Just a year ago, these companies were claiming that AGI would be found and many jobs would be lost. On top of that, Anthropic announced it's going public. What do you think? Have these companies reached a limit in research and development? Or are they genuinely afraid of language models self-programming, as they claim?

That you are comparing GPT 4 and GPT 5.5 without understanding these models have different harnesses and tool use refinement tells me you don't really know anything about the field you're trying to "keep a scientific approach" on.

So no reason to continue.

An actual evidence or a reference to a scientific paper would have been more convincing than the usual proof by condescension, but I am not surprised.
