I’ll be honest, while I have my doubts about the match of interests and cohesion between an AI company and a JS runtime company I have to say this is the single best acquisition announcement blog post I’ve seen in 20 years or so.

Very direct, very plain and detailed. They cover all the bases about the why, the how, and what to expect. I really appreciate it.

Best of luck to the team and hopefully the new home will support them well.

One thing I like about this, despite it meaning Bun will be funded, is Anthropic is a registered public benefit corporation. While this doesn't mean Anthropic cant fuck over the users of Bun, it at least puts in some roadblocks. The path of least-resistance here should be to improve Bun for users, not to monetize it to the point where it's no longer valuable.

Does that mean anything at all?

OpenAI is a public benefit corporation.
