For once, a tech valuation that aligns with my own estimation and outlay. As a developer, I've paid this company thousands of dollars in the past few months and am happy with what I've received.
Estimations are difficult, because nobody exactly knows the actual costs of Tokens.
But according to Ed Zitron, a $200 Claude subscription lets you burn through $2000 to $4000 of Tokens.
I'm looking forward to the day when OpenAI and Anthropic have to be profitable. Then we'll see what people are willing to pay.
And I'm also looking forward to having actual LLM-generated software on sale with Token- based payments. Then we'll see how stable it is, how secure and what the support costs are.
As they say in Formula 1: When the flag drops, the bullshit stops.
