I don't know that OpenAI specifically is the weak link but this definitely adds to the argument that the entire sector is a wash with the same three or four companies passing around the same $50B over and over. OpenAI is just the link that seems most likely to break first.

I've subscribed to a few AI tools for the last 3 years now. I'm someone who almost never subscribes to anything.

I'm sure that $50b has my money in there somewhere.

Yep same, I'd sooner starve than cut my Anthropic sub

If tomorrow Claude pricing changes and they start charging real API costs like 2000+ USD, and there is another service: "NotReallyClaude" that is a bit less good but 200 USD, then what would you do ?
