The way Anthropic continues to get away with testing these nerfing "experiments" on customers without their consent depriving them of the model quality they've paid for is wrong.

The Windows Insider program has shown plenty of people will willingly sign up to be testers for a taste of the rawhide. Anthropic could do this in a transparent way but they continue to choose not too.

IPO is coming so they will have to maximize profits going forward which will mean constraining the compute they give everyone to ensure the subscriptions make money.

Do they ever test by giving the model more resources to see if they can give users more for the same price ? Just saying
