Product Hunters,

Let's talk about Anthropic's Claude. Everyone praises its focus on safety and responsible AI, which is admirable. But I can't help but wonder: does this intense safety alignment sometimes come at the cost of raw capability or uncensored utility, especially when compared to rivals like GPT-4?

Is "safety" becoming a convenient justification for certain limitations, or is it genuinely paving the way for a more trustworthy, albeit potentially more cautious, AI? What are your thoughts on this balance? Does Claude's "helpful and harmless" sometimes feel... too careful for real-world innovation?

Hit me with your honest opinions.

I work with startup teams and use AI tools almost every day for writing, research, support, and more. It saves a lot of time, no doubt. But there are still things AI just can t do well.

For example, when reading customer feedback, AI often misses the real meaning behind the words, like when someone sounds polite but is actually unhappy. Or when making product decisions, AI can list pros and cons, but it doesn t really understand the bigger picture or timing like a human would.
