Well it’s Anthropic, creators of Claude. It’s a way to show off and convince people AI can do it. $20k is what it would cost you or me, but it’s just free for them.
I don’t even hate AI but it’s kinda sickening the way they overstate the capabilities. But let me tell you how excited the top leadership at my company is about this…

No it isn’t. This is not regular software where the bulk of the price is the licensing. With slope-as-a-service, the bulk of the price is the data center operation cost - which Anthropic is certainly not getting for free.
I mean there is a cost associated with it, just like there is a cost associated with having free soda in the break room, but it was free for the person doing the project. It’s absorbed into operational costs.

Considering how these companies are losing money because they subsidize these tokens - I doubt that cost is really absorbed.
