Just checked. I continue to have Claude Code with my Pro plan This is concerning though. If I lose my current usage allotment at this price point I will likely switch to codex

That works until openai does the same thing. Pretty clear as an industry they want to establish a new price floor for non-trivial coding use.

Yep, and the price point theyre looking at is 95% of an engineer.

Once they get people hooked, deskilled, and paying, the money ratchet only tightens.

And the companies KNOW that theyre replacing engineers, or trying to. So each engineer replaced is X salary a year they now have available, so make it back in SaaS LLM tokens.

Local AI is almost impossible right now with the prices of RAM and GPUs and the sizes of decent models. No way spending even an optimistic 10k, but more likely 20k, on a setup that is good for 5-6 months makes any financial sense.

Not yet, but it's only a matter of time. Local AI doesn't need to be bleeding edge either. Even capabilities of older modals would be fine.

I disagree wholeheartedly. Older models do not perform anywhere near as well as newer models, and certainly not once you throw in agents that can sense check, security check, refa tor and balance, and research queries as they run behind the scenes.

Depends entirely on the stakes and whether personal data is involved

> Depends entirely on the stakes and whether personal data is involved Sure. Let me just A/B test whether or not you'll respond positively or negatively to having your news delivered via push notification or delayed by 10 minutes. I'm sure you would appreciate being tested on without your consent, just so that I can make an extra quick buck at your expense. Nothing amoral or unethical about it.

What do you think about slow rollouts for new features? Like, we think this new push notification system will be loved but let’s ship to only 1% of users in case there’s a horrible unforeseen consequence like occasional 10min delays? Dashboard goes upside down -> revert then work through logs to figure out what the hell went wrong.

It's still included here https://claude.com/product/claude-code

Maybe they're putting out a weather balloon to test sentiment. That way when they're caught they can just point at the other page to say it was just a mistake.

Confirmed, 2% of users don't see Claude code included https://x.com/i/status/2046724659039932830

So their minimum workable offer for devs just went from $17 to $100. Also, I don't see how the Pro subscription is relevant anymore. Nobody pays $17 a month just to chat. I just unsubscribed. :) Time to try Chat GPT Codex, which even works with the free subscription (don't expect crazy token allowance, of course).

> I just unsubscribed. :)

Existing subscriptions are not impacted according to Tweets from their team. It’s apparently an A/B test they’re rolling out.

If you actually wanted the $20/month Claude Code plan you may have just shot yourself in the foot.
