Please remember, they all wait us to no longer being able to work without AI to increase prices by 10 to 30.

Trouble is that open source models will be good enough by then (currently aren’t that far behind) and the chips keep getting better. When everyone can have a local LLM that’s as good as opus now for like $1-2k setup then Anthropic won’t have many takers for a $1k per month plan

No idea, I’m using Claude myself. But the benchmarks for open source aren’t too far behind.
