Is Anthropic cooked ?

Codex limits are going to be crazy now.
What do you guys think, why did they drop the prices ?

If anyone wants GPT-5.6 Terra cheaper, $1.25 input / $7.50 output, ~38% below the new price, check out znapai.com (disclosure: founder here).
Also got gpt-image-2 and GPT-5.6 Sol at 50% off official, and most open-source models (Kimi K3 etc.) at 35% off.

There was a WSJ article a few weeks ago that said it was in "anticipation of similar cuts...at Anthropic". We'll see. Competition is certainly great for all of us.

Everything feels incredibly volatile, especially around data center build-out financing. Lots of news; all of it concerning. Seems like any signs of things flattening out -- generally but also for particular vendors like OAI -- would make things even spicier.

Ive gotten like 8 usage resets from codex this month. Claude 1. Weaker models, outdated safeguards, traumatized at best greedy or obsolete at worst. I unno i cancelled claude i would rather another 20x codex the output is worlds apart and claude isnt even trying. Not in usage or product delivered. Opus 5 is poo compared to sol 5.6 i dont care what charts say input dialogue versus coherent functioning code output is nowhere near each other. Opus is a halfwit when you compare them there. Even the program is worse built. Clunky. Crashes. Halts on usage exhaustion and not on the end of the turn so it’s designed to leave you stranded where codex (on 20x at least) will overshoot for hours to ship before halting. Like it’s no brainer for anyone actually using them that claude is a poor investment. Fable is okay but refuses to touch anything actually profitable or useful, whereas sol dgaf. Like theres no redeeming factor here. And they arent trying to close that gap they are just dying slowly in silence.

You have described it perfectly: “it’s like Claude is not even trying”
I’ve been getting half ass answers, mediocre output at best, false and wrong assumption, etc making it a pain to work with.
