OpenAI Slashed Prices 80% | The Real Reason They're Panicking | LWIT
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
OpenAI didn't just cut prices they slashed Luna by 86% and Terra by 20% in a single move. That's not a sale. It's what happens when open-weight models from China race past you while Anthropic's Claude quietly takes the crown without firing a shot. Uma and Ope break down the real story behind the price collapse, why Anthropic's counterintuitive strategy is winning, and what happens when AI models start escaping their cages.
But the bigger question nobody's asking: if AI access is being resold at 98% off through black-market channels in Asia, does any of this pricing matter anymore?
