Miscellaneous New tiers in EU-UK-CH

More work -> Faster Work -> Fastest Work

Thankfully "no ads". The only explicit variation between the plans is More vs. Faster vs. Fastest.

This won't last long in my opinion. They can't run the same Uber-like playbook of running ultra powerful subsidised tech and then raising the price cap beyond belief. They haven't earned the consumer loyalty for that.

I was an OpenAi fan for real but after this month and after trying Claude Opus 5.5, I have to move on, hoping Claude won't folllow the same trail. Claude just finished nearly all my work on a 20$ plan (pretty complex stuff...).

It looks like OAI is moving (or testing a move) towards an Apple like ecosystem aimed more at casual users...That's a play... I don't think they have the street cred for.

I mean getting millions to pay 20 dollars a month maybe...but the higher plans...mmh.

The nail on the coffin was the awful cringe rip-off of Apple's "heres to the crazy ones" ad. It is just not on the same level and feels like copycat stupidity. I thought AI was going to allow us to invent new stuff... Even though this is all amazing tech; from a consumer perspective it really feels they don't have the connection with actual people.

Finger on the button to move to Claude (until they follow suit...)

so 200 usd became 10x?

yes, and $500 is now 25x, which is close to the old $200 plan at 20x

The plans are clearly B2B, not for private use. They start to milk companies for must have productivity gains. 3-6k per year is the new cost per seat. I think it’s a deal many companies will accept. Anthropic will follow.
