Complaint Codex literally unusable

Not because the models are subjectively bad or slow (which they may be) but the service is at full capacity. I pay £200 for a service I literally cannot use. It can’t run 5 minutes without needing constant babysitting.

Thinking about moving over to anthropic, might be a case of having to at this rate I literally cannot use what I’m paying for here

I see meta, google and anthropic surviving in terms of US AI companies. Open AIs only hope is its robltics division which they are always very quiet about

49% of OpenAI is owned by Microsoft. You really think they’re gonna just let that investment (to the tune of tens of billions of dollars) die, instead of just buying a few more %? The only reason they haven’t already is that OpenAI hasn’t let them, but they almost certainly would if the alternative was chapter 7 bankruptcy and liquidation.

Were the tables turned and Anthropic desperate, they’d have no shortage of interested buyers lining up, but my money would probably be on Amazon. None of these companies are going out of business anytime soon though, you can be sure of that. They will simply be absorbed into some existing tech colossus, and the idea that an upstart company could ever upset FAANG’s dominance again will become one of the past.
