Of course not but explain how I am ever going to pay OpenAI, a for-profit company any dollars? Sam Altman gets explosive angry when he's asked about how he's going to collect revenue, and that is why. He knows when push comes to shove, his product isn't worth to people what it costs him to operate it. It's Homejoy at trillion dollar scale, the man has learned nothing. He can't make money off this thing which is why he's trying to get the government to back it. First through some crazy "Universal Basic Compute" scheme, now I guess through cosigning loans? I dunno, I just don't buy that this thing has any legs as a viable business.
I think you’re welcome to that opinion and are far from alone but (1) I am very happy to pay for Claude, even $200/mo is worth it and (2) idk if people just sort of lose track or what of how far things have come in the span of literally a single year, with the knowledge that training infra is growing insanely and people are solving on fundamental problem after another.
