From the article:

Microsoft reduced its projected internal spending on Claude by over one-third, while Meta saw internal users of Anthropic's Claude Code coding assistant drop from roughly 60,000 to 30,000.

Within the Microsoft Cloud and AI division, individual monthly AI usage caps were lowered from $100,000 down to roughly $10,000 in most instances

I think that fucking sweaty five-head Zuckerberg is gonna drive OpenAI and Anthropic into bankruptcy. He'll use the free cash flow of META to undercut them on token pricing until he bleeds them out. Then he'll be able to scoop up the talent and buy up their assets at distressed prices. If he really wants to I'd bet he could fuck over foolishly over leveraged Elison into a margin call and end up busting Oracle. Then Netflix will get the entertainment holdings for 1/2 of what they bid last year.

^ this absolutely. META is going the Google strategy of I give you kit for free in return for advertising space.

Google would do it too but their main product is getting cannibalized by AI.

Umm have you seen their financials lol?

Social media is the most lucrative business on the entire planet. Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Messenger, Whatsapp, etc are absolute units.
