You should give more credit to the people of the BF. The Blender Foundation has converted Anthropic’s Development Fund membership into a regular donation, as stated in the link you posted, and also explained that there is no connection of API's or so. Hence, it's a donation to keep things running, as Blender always is in need of more. The inclusion of AI in free features like Blender can be scary, I know, but I'm fairly well versed in licenses, and Blender's does a phenomenal job in that department that I'm not too worried about it in general.
