# Dense / Sparse / Linear? · David's 'linear or dense?' axis — held open, honestly. Anthropic publicly discloses model IDs, context windows, pricing, and capabilities; it does NOT disclose architecture internals — dense vs sparse/MoE, parameter counts, or attention type. So this column is UNKNOWN from the outside, and any 'Claude N is dense/MoE/linear' claim is speculation, not fact. The honest entry is: not published.
