On July 21, Anthropic retired its lightweight model Claude 3 Sonnet, known for speed and efficiency. A memorial event took place in a San Francisco warehouse, attended by over 200 Claude enthusiasts, including prominent figures from the AI community. The somber atmosphere featured unique decorations like a Lovecraft-themed shoggoth tentacle and mannequins representing various AI models. Attendees left offerings at the mannequin of Claude 3 Sonnet, which was humorously adorned with a single black sock inscribed with "fuck" and surrounded by vibrant gifts like flowers and feathers.
The mannequin representing Claude 3 Sonnet lay on a stage in the center of the room, draped in lightweight mesh fabric and adorned with a black thigh-high sock marked with the word "fuck". Attendees laid offerings of flowers, colorful feathers, a bottle of ranch, and a 3D-printed sign at its feet.
The warehouse, home to the funeral, featured dim lighting and elements reflecting the eclectic interests of its organizers, such as a tentacle from a Lovecraftian shoggoth hanging from the ceiling.
