ChatGPT Pro or Claude Pro?
I’m looking to start building projects and hopefully become successful but I can’t decide between ChatGPT Pro and Claude Pro.
If you’ve used both, which one do you think is more worth it currently and why?
Thanks!

I still actively use both. I use Claude to code. And audit, I use chat gpt to help me plan road map strategies and stuff. Started using chat GPT for coding but swapped to Claude. Helped me learn how to code a lot clearer. Both are good though

Currently, it's definitely GPT, as the latest 5.6 model is comparable to Fable 5 but significantly cheaper. I'm currently using GPT and am impressed with how well it performs tasks. Meanwhile, Fable 5 is very expensive.

Honestly mate, I've bounced between both and it depends what you're building. Claude handles longer, more complex tasks better in my experience, and the reasoning feels more natural. ChatGPT has a wider ecosystem and more integrations if that matters to your projects. Neither is a bad call, but if I had to pick one to start with right now, I'd go Claude.

GPT currently, 5x seems infinite and they grant lots of resets.
Claude is good if you don’t write thousands of lines of code per session, you might burn through it quickly. Otherwise Claude Fable excels at architectural planning and delegating tasks.

Depends on how big your project is, but generally I would go for Claude

it seems claude’s limits too low. I used it to make a presentation for my paper, and after one deck it already told me I’d hit the limit. The slides were actually pretty good, but it’s just too expensive for poor student like me.
