<p>Competition is a wonderful thing. $1.20 per 1M output is crazy, but let’s also not forget that OpenAI was one of the first to start increasing model prices ~10-12 months ago.<p>GPT-5 cost $10 (per 1M output)<p>They still have to pay back those hundreds of billions of investment dollars somehow.<p>The best thing any developer can do today is to make their app LLM/provider agnostic (or use an LLM gateway) to avoid lock-in.</p>

<p>I wonder if this is an alternative (and better) revenue stream vs ads for search engines: Offer a competing web search for LLMs as an alternative  to Google, and charge enterprises and LLM providers for it.<p>I know Brave do this already. Not sure about DDG (I wonder if their agreement with Bing would allow it?)</p>

<p>The fact that these Chinese models are getting close to “Opus-grade” despite costing 6x-8x less is huge.<p>As the token bills start to come in, those economics will be harder to ignore (regardless of the origin of the LLM); especially as there will be many CIOs sweating over their quick and costly AI initiatives showing little ROI.<p>My hope is that the EU also steps up their own competition in the frontier model space so that it’s not just China v USA.</p>

<p>I read the same thing! As someone that has followed Rossmann for years now, I am beyond disappointed that he would do something like this.<p>I could understand if it was drug smuggling, but maple syrup? That crossed the line for me.<p>I hope Louis can pull himself together and come back from this.</p>

<p>Next they’ll slowly reduce how much CC usage you can get out of the $100 Max plan, then introduce a new $300 “Max Plus” plan with “40x” usage.

<p>DDLC is one of those once in a lifetime gaming experiences.

<p>Cool app. It takes a lot of courage to share here, so well done. I’d definitely highlight a bit more prominently what languages it supports though.
 The interface is very “Claude” so I’d be keen to hear about:<p>- How did you go about developing this?<p>- Was the entire thing vibe coded or just part of it? No shade either way, just curious.<p>- How long did it take?<p>- What were some of the harder hurdles to overcome?<p>- Given the use of AI, what’s your approach to security of your users data? How did you review any generated code?</p>

<p>Wow the opening to this could have been written by me!<p>Solitude in your 30s (particularly as a DINK or SINK household) is <i>dangerously</i> addictive.<p>No need to leave the house… but it does lead one to feel disconnected more broadly over a prolonged period.<p>They’ll have to pry WFH out of my cold, dead hands; but I must say, the times I do travel to the office and spend a day chatting with people are incredibly energising (though also very unproductive!)</p>

<p>Brave is great, but I just wish it wasn’t Chromium based.<p>It’s always been ironic to me that a Privacy browser is dependent on source code primarily controlled by a company that derives the majority of its revenue from ads… exactly what the browser itself was spun off to shield its users against.</p>
