Obviously the Anthropic employee advertising their product wants you to pay as much as possible for it.

The generosity of the Max plans indicates otherwise.

God bless these generously benevolent corporations, giving us such amazing services for the low low price of only $200 per month. I'm going to subscribe right now! I almost feel bad, it's like I'm stealing from them.

That $200 a month is getting me $2000 a month in API equivalent tokens.

I used to spend $200+ an hour on a single developer. I'm quite sure that benevolence was a factor when they submitted me an invoice, since there is no real transparency if I was being overbilled or not or that the developer acted in my best interest rather than theirs.

I'll never forget that one contractor who told me he took a whole 40 hours to do something he could have done in less than that, specifically because I allocated that as an upperbound weekly budget to him.

Do you ever feel bad for basically robbing these poor people blind? They're clearly losing so much money by giving you $1800 in FREE tokens every month. Their business can't be profitable like this, but thankfully they're doing it out of the goodness of their hearts.

		I'm not sure that you actually expect to be taken seriously if you're going to assert that these companies don't have costs themselves to deliver their services.
