I think this says a lot about the business approach of Anthopic compared to OpenAI. Just the vast amount of free messages you get from OpenAI is crazy that turning a profit with that seems impossible. Anthropic is growing more slowly but it seems like they are not running a crazy deficit. They do not need to put ads or porn in their chatbot
This resonates alot with how I've been using Claude lately. The best sessions feel less like chatting with an AI and more like thinking out loud with someone who actually listens. The 'space to think' framing captures something I couldnt quite articulate before - its not about getting answers, its about having a patient collaborator while you work through problems. Wonder if this is closer to what pair programming was supposed to feel like.
