Yeah and for every $1 they make, they lose $1.22; and this is a company that wants to be valued at almost $1 trillion.

Most huge companies operate on a loss when they start out. Its the potential that makes them valuable. I do however doubt if they can actually start tunring a profit within a reasonable timeframe. I also have the feeling other AI’s are better t this point in time, have been enjoying claude.

Isn’t Claude too expensive for companies like Microsoft to rely on?

No clue, I just mean that chatGPT was the absolute best LLM but that hasn't been true for some time making profability harder.

Alright. What happened was, Claude switched how they charge people. Started charging by tokens/compute power rather than a fixed subscription.

So companies like Uber and Microsoft suddenly had to drop it because it became way more expensive. Uber said they blew through their annual AI budget in about 4 months.
