I’m paying $240 a year to Anthropic that I wasn’t paying before and it’s worth it. While I don’t use Claude every single day, but I use it several times a day when I’m working. More times than the free tier allows.
Why do people say this like it's a refutation? Current valuation and investments were not based on getting a very small group of nerds (affectionately) on HN to pay $250/yr which probably doesn't cover even inference costs for the models let alone training and R&D
