switching to @OpenAI instead! You never hear of them experiencing so many problems! I can’t run my business like this!! #FAIL

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@claudeai said that #Fable 5.1 was much more efficient on token usage than 5, yet it’s burning our tokens much faster than before!! And that’s despite limits being temporarily increased 50% until Sept 13th!!!?! WTAF?! @ClaudeDevs @DarioAmodei @AnthropicAI @bcherny @karpathy

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

This is NOT acceptable! I’ve seen many GitHub issues on this matter – including one that said they burnt through their 20x in only 22 HOURS! I hope you will fix this and credit our accounts ASAP!

I’m sick of these constant problems and unreliable billing, and seriously consider

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@claudeai @claudeai and @AnthropicAI are clearly blind and deaf to what’s happening elsewhere in the industry. There are competing open weights models that cost far less 🙈

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@trigeki @claudeai I think unless you use enterprise accounts, surely all of your data is used for training…?

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@claudeai How about improving what you already have, make your pricing strategy to be competitive with @OpenAI, and responding to customer complaints… before you add more features! More features are no good if you have no customers to use them – and very many loyal customers left now! 🤮

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@Fabian_Yolked @claudeai You won’t get much usage of Fable for $100… don’t get too excited 🤣

And apparently everyone hitting limits faster on all models now. No such thing as a free meal

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@codebydinil @claudeai @OpenAI @AnthropicAI And I just cancelled my Max account after using it for months. Unless @AnthropicAI / @claudeai address all the issues & become competitive, I won’t return!

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@codebydinil @claudeai $100 won’t last long with Fable on Pro FFS

Don’t get too excited! Many complaints about all @claudeai models hitting limits much faster even with “higher limits”, community suffered significant downtime/problems, only usable with 50% of limits. @OpenAI better than @AnthropicAI

Anthropic had the biggest miscalculation in AI 2026:
1. They underestimated the progress others made, and thought they can win forever.
2. Thus, they assumed their customers will continue to tolerate their terrible policies (pricing, random usage limits, bad data retention, arbitrary access removal etc.) and cocky PR because they are AGI. They didn't invest in building customer trust because they thought they didn't need to.
3. They also assumed by simply painting open-weight as dangerous and unsafe, they can persuade enterprises to not touch them and persuade government to ban them.
4. They knew user data in Claude Code is how they win, yet their bad user policy/pricing gave aways their already-sticky users to Codex/Grok/etc, enabling others to capture equally valuable user data on their own.
5. Meanwhile, they didn't invest enough in owning their compute, instead putting itself in a vulnerable position at the mercy of @elonmusk, their competitor.

When a strong open-weight provider catches up(@thinkymachines, Kimi, GLM etc.), people suddenly realized Claude has 1. no pricing advantage 2. no compute advantage 3. no branding advantage (already broke enterprise trust, pissed off prosumers, and consumers don't know Claude exists)
Anthropic needs some serious strategy pivots. The status quo won't work at all for them. They still have the highest caliber talents, so I am still hopefully they will change for the better. But simply a better model than Fable isn't going to be enough to turn things around IMO.

@PatriotSeekin @dwjorgeb @claudeai @AnthropicAI You are in no position to tell them they’re talking crap, when you weren’t there and didn’t experience what they did, so STFU

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@PragatiKunwer @claudeai If it was a “fair trade”, people wouldn’t be leaving Claude in their droves 🙈

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@quma32 @claudeai You wouldn’t get much usage from Fable on Pro… a few minutes max

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@FadiZeidan @claudeai You look like you’re on your own 🤣🤣🙈

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@claudeai @DarioAmodei @ClaudeDevs @OpenAI listen to their customers, and offer ability to reset limits too!

I hope that you will make positive changes and compensate us for the considerable inconveniences! @DarioAmodei @ClaudeDevs @bcherny @karpathy @lydiahallie

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@claudeai @DarioAmodei @ClaudeDevs @OpenAI It’s sad to see how negative the sentiment is with the community here, in response to your post! It’s time that you start to listen to your customers and be more competitive with @OpenAI who don’t suffer these problems, don’t restrict access to #Sol

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

compensate customers! But compensation is also no longer going to be good enough if things keep screwing up! 🤬

If I was a potential #IPO #investor, I’d be very unhappy right now!

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

@AnthropicAI just goes from bad to worse! Not only are their safeguards still too sensitive, but they extended #Fable5 usage until 19th July and today mid-project it disappeared and said I “need to use Usage Credits for this model”!? WTAF @DarioAmodei It seems your team really

[El Professor @ElProfessor2019]

are hell bent on losing loyal customers!! It’s really not ideal paying so much money each month for a service that I unusable and unreliable! @ClaudeDevs @bcherny @lydiahallie At this rate I’ll be moving to the more reliable @OpenAI ! I hope you fix this and extend this period to
