The part where you say "they don't easily leave what they are used to".
They do. They leave, easily, when there's a better product. As I gave examples of. I don't know what further evidence you could want. You're positing some supposed stickiness that simply doesn't exist. You've given no evidence of it.
Is reading comprehension so poor these days ?
I'm literally saying people don't bother trying potentially better options and that they don't easily leave what they are used to. What part of that statement implies they would never leave for a much better product? I'm genuinely baffled.
>But experts in these things do
Yeah.. experts in...search engines? Whatever. Those guys aren't making videos for marginally better products and even if they are, it doesn't mean anything.
Anthropic had the better base model especially for coding for a long while. There were articles. There were videos. Why does GPT usage still dwarf Anthropic ?
Network Effects are not the only thing that creates stickiness for customers.
