Blender change the Anthropic AI funding deal, with discussions planned for AI Policies

The Blender Foundation has altered its sponsorship deal with Anthropic following backlash, with Anthropic's funding now being a direct donation without sponsorship status. The foundation will also strengthen its processes for accepting donations and develop formal policies regarding generative AI technologies. Blender currently has no plans to integrate generative AI functionality into its software.
