Wasn't Apple's iconic 1984 ad basically that?

ah, good one. Was it Big Blue or Big Brother in general being referenced in that one? Either way I suppose Apple didn't even say much of anything about their product in that one where Anthropic is at least highlighting a feature.

Apple's ad had a woman dressed like a Hooter's waitress to represent themselves. That makes themselves the focus of attention.

That's a pretty weird take. Her costume is typical of track and field athletes of the time, except that her jersey represents the nation of the Apple Macintosh, which you can barely notice in the ad because it flashes by in a split second.
