Tell HN: Anthropic should make Claude the Author and me the Co-Author

Anthropic has been messing with this behavior as seen by the bugs below: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/66602 https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/69835 etc

They seem to be too hell bent on getting their attribution in. Why does an LLM even want to take credits for? They cannot own copyright.

I suggest they make themselves the primary author, so they can get the blame as well. And would even match reality of orgs/people that have drank the AI fuelled cool-aid.

What say?



One of the first things to put into Claude memory for me is to keep this stupid co-author marketing out of my commits


People can still tell that it was Claude, why try to hide it.


Just "LLM" it, not Claude.


I think it is jus LLM too...


I mean, yes, Claude should be the author and you should just be the committer. But you should also take all the blame from committing whatever Claude wrote.
