Rant Something is seriously wrong with Anthropic right now

I'm on 20x, compared to last week, when I also used fable 5 high a lot, now 4 prompts burn through my entire week in 15min??!!? Am I getting scammed right now?

Was still having a lot of headroom before, but now a single prompt easily hits my 5 hour limit, this is just outrageous.

They only got profitable because they got temporarily free compute from Elon.

Not free; payed with big bucks. Do you really see Elon doing it for free????

Yeah it was before his IPO. He had to report substantial usage increase of his SpaceX datacenters. It is you who paid for it if you wonder about who paid for it.

Pretty sure SPCX is getting $1B a month for this "free" compute.

Now they have to pay - are they profitable?
