I find this funny and interesting at some levels

1. Codex, Claude and others try to switch models being used at their level itself to manage the cost and outcomes

2. Now company like data bricks develops one more layer on the top of it to do the same task, of finding the base harness and applicable model

Companies like Codex and Claude are focussing/investing heavily on to ensure that people are using their harness directly or instead use APIs. Unless Databricks has some agreement in place they are violating the TOS and openly publishing an article about it. Would be interesting if openAi or Anthropic come back and claim for the API usage prices and all the savings go away.

... where in the article did they say they were using subscriptions? I'm fairly certain enterprises can't access subscription pricing in any case, they're all API costs (Anthropic doesn't support more than 150 on subscription pricing [0][1]).

Open ai is allowing subscription use, anthropic also paused the effort to stop subscription use.

Databricks will be using the API anyway, thats all you get with an enterprise agreement.
