The ads sent a clear message: The company won\u2019t put advertisements in its Claude chatbot, a declaration that came shortly after OpenAI said ads were coming to ChatGPT. OpenAI executives, including Sam Altman, quickly hit back and accused Anthropic\u2019s ads of being misleading and criticized their competitor\u2019s business model. (OpenAI plans to run its own SuperBowl ad this weekend. )\n    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-elevate inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph_elevate\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cmlaazih200063b6pcacmlywy@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n            The rivalry runs deep. Anthropic\u2019s founders are former OpenAI employees who left over disagreements about the ChatGPT maker\u2019s direction, approach to safety and pace of AI development. While ChatGPT has become a household name, Anthropic\u2019s Claude is a favorite among software engineers, who say Claude Code and Claude Cowork have completely changed their industry.  OpenAI launched its own coding tool, called Codex, and this week announced more business tools, including a new platform to manage AI agents called Frontier.\n    <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-elevate inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph_elevate\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cmlaazih200073b6peee744bj@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n            Experts say AI could change the way people live and work; the tiff between two of the industry\u2019s biggest players shows how different visions for those changes can be.\n    <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subheader inline-placeholder subheader-elevate vossi-subheader_elevate vossi-subheader_elevate--size-h2\" data-editable=\"text\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/subheader\/instances\/cmlaazpzw000s3b6p8acbq6zd@published\" data-component-name=\"subheader\" id=\"betrayal-and-violation\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n        \u2018Betrayal\u2019 and \u2018Violation\u2019<br \/>\n<\/h2>\n<p class=\"paragraph-elevate inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph_elevate\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cmlaazih200093b6paoee9gpr@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n            Anthropic on Wednesday unveiled a series of ads, two of which will air during the Super Bowl, titled \u2018Betrayal,\u2019 \u2018Deception,\u2019 \u2018Treachery\u2019 and \u2018Violation.\u2019 In one ad\u202f, a man asks an older woman how he can&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2026\/02\/06\/tech\/anthropic-openai-super-bowl-ads\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two of the biggest AI companies are feuding over a Super Bowl ad.
