When I attended back in the late 90’s, there was a view that once y2k was over and that crisis was dealt with the industry would collapse and there wouldn’t be any jobs.

What’s happening now reminds me a lot of that.


Where is the sense of dread coming from?


Listening to Dario at the NYT DealBook summit, and reading between the lines a bit, it seems like he is basically saying Anthropic is trying to be a reponsible, sustainable business and charging customers accordingly, and insinuating that OpenAI is being much more reckless, financially.


I think it's difficult to estimate how profitable both are - depends too much on usage and that varies so much.

I think it is widely accepted that Anthropic is doing very well in enterprise adoption of Claude Code.

In most of those cases that is paid via API key not by subscription so the business model works differently - it doesn't rely on low usage users subsidizing high usage users.

OTOH OpenAI is way ahead on consumer usage - which also includes Codex even if most consumers don't use it.

I don't think it matters - just make use of the best model at the best price. At the moment Codex 5.2 seems best at the mid-price range, while Opus seems slightly stronger than Codex Max (but too expensive to use for many things).


Consumer subscriptions are an impossible business, that's why openai NEEDS ads to have any chance of sustainability.


Convenience and cost seem like big advantages.


If it works, he gets credit. If it fails or never happens, someone else gets the blame. pretty classic.


Very impressive, nice work!


Interesting, I really like balsamiq and still use it personally, despite work being a figma shop.


Used to use it a lot, still like it and the handful of times I've needed something similar, it's what I reach for.


I think it's great, nicely done! Tools like this to condense and cross-reference complex information to something you can reference easily is very useful to a human like myself.


There are effective and ineffective MBA's.


Except MBA claims to be a signal of management capability. With that prior assumption, it is a catastrophic failure.
