   I don't see how anyone can be using Claude with prices like this, it's pretty incredible what the OpenAI team is doing, w.r.t model quality and pricing.

     Prices per 1M tokens     Claude Opus 5.5    Claude Opus 5
      Cache reads              $0.20              $0.50
      Input tokens             $4                 $5
      Output tokens            $20                $25
      Cache writes             $5                 $6.25

      Disagree. I would never use OpenAI cause they're probably just going to steal whatever I'm working on.

         and anthropic won't? or any other inference provider? Running your own inference either locally or remotely are probably the only ways to make sure that doesn't happen.

            Well we know for a fact that OpenAI steals Millennium Problem work from researchers. Have we seen anything similar from Anthropic?

               source? p sure they said they were confident they did not access the researcher's chats

         What are you working on? Is any of it actually worth stealing?

         And why is that bad? As your brain gets older, it will not remain so clever, so you'll be grateful for an AI that thinks like you do when it comes to your line of work, failing which the quality of your output could recede like your hairline.

            >so you'll be grateful for an AI that thinks like you do when it comes to your line of work.

            Highly subjective take

            What kind of work do you do, out of curiosity

            Are you really comparing LLMs to brains?

            1. OutOfHere · 1790115746 · focus · HN ↗

               Nope, but I am old enough to recognize that my skills if not transferred to AI can be lost to the wind. I am also wise enough to not be too selfish.

            cause im tryna monetize some idea i have

         See I will never use anthropic because they run inference on spacex. Wat den een sien Uhl, is den annern sien Nachtigall.

            What’s your problem with spacex? Do you have Elon derangement syndrome?

               It's not the guy. It's the guys he attracts.
