Yup, they’ve been screwing up all the way to the bank.

I agree that lower cost models will become a bigger priority in the near future, but I have to hard disagree that Anthropic’s strategy can be characterized as a screw up.

Sure, if they never shift with the market and their customers start moving to cheaper competitors, then it’d be a screw up.

But as of right now, producing the best coding model possible has led to insatiable demand. To the point where they’ve even eclipsed OpenAI, forcing them to change strategy to compete.
