This should be the top post. Not Anthropic or OpenAI marketing plots. This is existential.

  It's too late. You can one-shot a port of Linux to Rust and stop contributing to open source. The value of software is going to tend towards zero. The value of the software developer the same. Anthropic is now a kingmaker. It gets to decide which businesses get the expensive private model that can generate entire business functions at the drop of a hat. If you can't afford the price tag, then competition in the market is not for you. Computing is no longer "personal". It's for big biz only.

      GP is exaggerating but I am convinced this will happen sooner rather than later. The improvements in AI are truly exponential if you read the SOTA papers. It's hard to keep up week to week.
