OpenAI cancelling the $200/20x and then introducing the $500/25x was basically the canary in the coal mine.

I am looking forward to the 2026 numbers from Anthropic in preperation for their IPO, because that's where the really big numbers are going to be.

The original „AI labs are bleeding money“ canary is dead since a very long time at this point
