I suspect the only reason those alternative providers have better up-time and more generous quotas, is because they don't have nearly the same amount of demand. Notice that Deepseek recently had to increase their pricing, once it gained it popularity.

This can ultimately result in the system breaking. I don't think Anthropic engineers are that much worse than their peers, such that they are 10x more prone to causing outages due to bad deployments.

Reduced weekly limits, higher prices than competitors, paying well above spot price for space-x compute, all point to supply issues.

Demand > supply. It's impressive that customers have not migrated en masse to other providers, given the frequency of these outages. Perhaps switching costs are greater than some would believe. Or, qualitative differences between models continue to exist, despite matching on public benchmarks.

This is brutal, especially for small transactions. Note each failed attempt is another screening fee. Unfortunately, there is no good competition.

By what measure is there an overbuild? Every metric I look at, shows inference unable to satisfy current demands.

They are doing both. Distilling Mythos down to affordable models, so they can continue to fund the business. And training Mythos level models at the high-end, to expand the frontier.

You seem to assume training on pelican would not result in improved performance on other similar tasks. Why?

Its actually useful, when you are launching into a long monologue and want periodic acknowledgement that its "listening".

Way too expensive. Google vision OCR (which they failed to compare against), is $1.50 per 1k pages. Vs $4 from Mistral.

I doubt this is representative of real world usage. There is a difference between a few turns on a web chatbot, vs many-turn cli usage on a real project.
