didn't seem to me that such a capital intensive business could have huge profit margins! but Claude code seems to be the secret sauce

on the other hand it does stand to reason that "highly capable productivity tool for business" (Claude) would sell like gangbusters, while "Nazi CSAM generator" (Grok) would not

also kind of funny that it going YOLO with chatbots and image generators in 2022 appears to be extremely stupid, business-wise. that kind of shit is like two-thirds of why people hate AI, and it turns out to be unnecessary

Potentially even short and medium term profitability. Look at the rate that GLM, DeepSeek, and Kimi are closing the gap on fable class models, at much cheaper prices. And coders are figuring that out as soon as the CFO slaps on budget restrictions.
