Ok I’ll ask since nobody else has — are they not giving their devs a Claude code max or Codex Pro subscription? If so, why is token cost approaching billions? And if not, why not?

They can't.

The subscriptions are for personal use not enterprise.

i.e. [1] "This article is about paid Max plans for individual consumers. If you're part of an organization looking to use Claude with your team, refer to Team and Enterprise Plans."

Enterprise customers don’t get those plans, at the enterprise level you have to pay by the API rate… so people don’t have limited use, but you’re also not getting the heavily discounted rate the “normal” plans are at.

		>Meta plans to spend up to $135 billion on AI infrastructure through 2026 and commits $600 billion to data center buildouts through 2028 And they can't afford a few extra billion that their engineers can utilize right now? Looks like AI as it develops is intended to be too expensive for regular people in the long run, but if Meta can't even afford it at that rate, who can?

Big enterprises don't get to have those subscriptions. OpenAI or Anthropic simply won't sell them to you if you need a couple thousand of those.
