| Affecting 5% of users to me sounds like it affects pretty much everyone who got some value out of the tool and is not a casual coder. |

I didn’t mean casual in the negative sense, so there is no “better”, there is only casual and not casual. My theory is that 5% sounds like a small number until you realize that many people just tried it and and didn’t like it, forgot to cancel, have it paid by their employer wishing for 100x improvements, or most people have found AI useful only in certain scenarios that they face every once in a while etc. | |
| ▲ | andix 5 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I don't really get how those 24/7 agents should work. Claude code is the first tool that gives me really good LLM code, but it needs A LOT of guidance. I even interrupt it often, to stop it following through on bad ideas. | |

| We do not know if that is less than 5% of users or less than 5% of paid users? We do know that PR teams enjoy framing things in the most favorable light possible. |

| ▲ | steveklabnik 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | We do, they're paid users. These limits are regarding the usage of the paid plans. | |

| Let's hope that's true, and not some statistics trick. |
