The fact that every company involved other than nvidia is hemorrhaging cash and has no path to profitability.
I understand what you're saying but Opus has already changed programming forever. It is here, companies are stuck on it, people are stuck on it and that's if everything stopped today.
Nobody is going back to coding by hand. Does path to probability make sense when you have as sticky as a product as they have?
Worst case scenario open source catches up to you and we move back to a more centralized computing model.
Yeah companies aren't going to pay a time and a half for devs without questioning why they aren't actually producing more software or less defects than they used to.
I didn't really understand this take, if you work in the start up industry, we've been shipping like crazy. We're producing a metric shit ton especially compared to enterprises. It's drastically different right now in forward orgs.
We've had this discussion at work, but more in a "what if they keep hiking up the price" rather than Anthropic going down. The conclusion we reached was, we will probably move to local models, possibly open source, due to how much they are improving, and will most likely improve by the time this happens
Yeah I agree this is probably the long-term move. But I give it another year or two till we get an open source model that's comparable to even sonnet 4 which imo is where it started getting really solid.
Same. Anthropic is great, probably the best... this week. Even if the open source models never catch up, having something 90% as good for a fraction of the cost (capex + electrical bills) will definitely make it attractive.
