How so?

I pay Claude/ChatGPT trivial amounts of money for metered API access to their models, and they in turn provide it to me.

Middlemen/marketplace models like "Uber for x" or "Etsy for x" or "Betterhelp for x" is a totally different business model.

I had in mind the surge in LLM chat support and the surge in thin ChatGPT wrappers with a custom system prompt. Claude/ChatGPT do seem useful, "an AI companion for Microsoft Paint" less so.
