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.

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 ?

Your subscription fees didn't fully pay for the amortization on the chips you used for the inference.

Inference is profitable. Gross margins are in the 50%+ apparently. This is coming from Anthropic CEO.
