Most people don’t want to accept and believe that the only viable revenue stream is selling tokens in relation to software development.

All the other stuff is nice… but you will continue to be money losing and eventually die.

Now you can’t come out and say this because there’s a whole bunch of investments that depend on hype - think about the robotics nonsense.

There is some revenue in copywriting, translation and generating images. But that is probably 20 per month per seat enterprise plans with limited use. With the possible cost of interface varying enough to have actual marginal costs...

Is it actually profitable? That the presumed market leader, Anthropic, changed their business model just today to kill off their buffet monthly plans and switch to a la carte for Enterprise makes me doubt they are making money off of selling tokens to software developers.
