The casino increased all their fees, reduced their limits and want more from your credits.

The owner of this casino (Anthropic) decided to upgrade the slot machine (Claude Code) with a new random number generator engine (Opus 4.7) and decommissioned the old one (Opus 4.6).

They claim that the new engine (Opus 4.7) gives better odds and generates results faster with every press of the button, with a catch that it takes more credits on every turn.

The house (Anthropic) always wins.

i dont think you need to make it malicious, this is what not having enough compute looks like in practice.

its true of gpt5, its true of why antigravity rate limits, and its true of claude.

there is no possible action thats not user hostile when you dont have enough compute. You either reject customers which is hostile and kills your companies growth or you do the best you can with what you have.

its not like these companies under built, they're building as fast as they can.

I mean if a corps goals dont align with their customers (which almost universally they do not), its pretty safe to assume every action is malicious. Anthropic need to generate profit from a service where users burn cash like it's the weimar republic, every choice they make will be to the detriment of the user up until users stop paying.

I like this comparison.
