alt Hacker NewsThis metaphor gets repeated a lot for some reason but using a gym subscription has an upper bound. If one subscription could be using 10000 different machines at the same time their model would be entirely different.

Claude also has higher bound. Once it proposed running 16 concurrent subagents and it went through 5h limit (and substantial part of weekly) in minutes.
Overall it would go through weekly usage within 40 minutes, if not for 5h session limit.
Running on 10000 computers will just hit all the limits at once.
CC has an upper bound too, and one that is much more reasonably reached in regular usage (as opposed to gym visits)
