Obviously the Anthropic employee advertising their product wants you to pay as much as possible for it.

The generosity of the Max plans indicates otherwise.

  • God bless these generously benevolent corporations, giving us such amazing services for the low low price of only $200 per month. I'm going to subscribe right now! I almost feel bad, it's like I'm stealing from them.

    • That $200 a month is getting me $2000 a month in API equivalent tokens.

      I used to spend $200+ an hour on a single developer. I'm quite sure that benevolence was a factor when they submitted me an invoice, since there is no real transparency if I was being overbilled or not or that the developer acted in my best interest rather than theirs.

      I'll never forget that one contractor who told me he took a whole 40 hours to do something he could have done in less than that, specifically because I allocated that as an upperbound weekly budget to him.
