Too many people are becoming too helplessly dependent on these tools before it's even clear what the real, eventual cost to consumers will be.

I ran the numbers on my day yesterday: 10 hour day of coding, no meetings. It was $118 worth of tokens. In one day. I've heard of many devs burning through $350 worth in a day. And this is at subsidized prices

Rohit / @krishnanrohit:

If we are seeing slowing employment or more unemployment, as we do in the tech sector here, is it fair to think that depending on the composition you might actually see an increase in productivity too...

Anthropic won. Overwhelmingly. They gained aura, gained users, gained brand value, gained trust, gained respect. And society won, because Dario raised the issue of the ways the government could use AI against us.

For anyone freaking out: This is not a demand problem. We all knew Oracle and OpenAI had set extremely ambitious targets. What we're seeing now is simply reality catching up.

Rihard Jarc / @rihardjarc:

The news about $ORCL and OpenAI ending plans to expand the Texas Data Center site is great news for $MSFT, $AMZN and $GOOGL as OAI will have to lean more towards those compute partners.

Cursor internal analysis shows how hard Anthropic is subsidizing Claude Code. Last year, a $200 monthly subscription could use $2,000 in compute. Now, the same $200 monthly plan can consume $5,000 in compute (2.5x increase). [image]
