alt Hacker News> Why on earth would any third party continue to use Anthropic’s offerings to manage their AI needs? They clearly are going to cannibalize any profitable integrator.
Because their competitors will. In other words company A wants to get there faster than a company B in the same market. If there are no competitors and it's monopoly and it's only company A vs Anthropic, then yeah they should think twice perhaps before sending their code to Anthropic (or anyone else like that).
So short term you need to use their products to keep up with competitors, but longer term they effectively replace your companies ability to prove a value add.
Seems like its lose-lose. But theres no alternative in the short term for you.
