Is that why they are racing to release so many products? It feels to me like they want to suck up the profits from every software vertical.

Yeah it seems so. Anthropic has entered the enshittification phase. They got people hooked onto their SOTAs so it's now time to keep releasing marginal performance increase models at 40% higher token price. The problem is that both Anthropic and OpenAI have no other income other than AI. Can't Google just drown them out with cheaper prices over the long run? It seems like an attrition battle to me.
