That’s not his prediction, he made it clear they are useful. His conclusion for that section is this:

> The only real question for me is: Are the LLM-code-review tools economically viable outside the bubble?

So is he suggesting that in the future, models of Opus 4.8 tier will no longer be as affordable? Like it would become 3-5x more expensive?

Now that's quite a prediction.

		I believe the added point was that new tools identify a group of bugs, and then there aren’t more bugs to find. At which point it becomes another tool you use and don’t think about. Also, from what I recall, Anthropic and OpenAI subsidize their prices by ~40x? That said, given the prices*quality of recently released open models, I think the cost issue is moot.

		I’m not exactly sure but I think he’s implying the AI labs aren’t profitable on inference? And that once the bubble pops those models won’t be available anymore? Just my assumptions
