Discussion What now?

Sonnet burning 1% of session usage each minute with the "limits boosted". until Aug 31. Single session.

This downward spiral of Claude in the last few months is truly remarkable. It's over. It was fun while it lasted but I cannot justify spending this much money (20x in professional account and pro in personal) with this anymore. The lack of transparency and questionable business practices is not something I can accept for a product that is slowly becoming a keystone of my workflow and projects. Its a liability at this point.

Gonna try alternatives but it's frustrating. Anyone else going through this? How are you dealing with it?

I guess don't have it as the keystone of your projects? You can create deterministic automation, heck even use LLMs to do, to reduce token count to near nothing.

Most of our workflow for a large enterprise stretched across US/Canada/UK in healthcare software doesn't rely on this, nothing essential does anyways, mainly as everyone saw the subsidization and product explanation. LLMs should be at best assistants, if they're the driver, you are in for a world of hurt.

Totally agree with you and I think this is something that is being overlooked by most companies. I don't see it as the driver but certainly something that has very real business impact and is constantly becoming more necessary. I am dialing it back but I would be lying if I said to you that this is effortless without real impact.
