AI subscriptions are dead

Claude Fable 5 will only be on the Anthropic subscription until June 22nd. After that, you will need to pay for usage per token

This will be the start of a much larger trend

Frontier models will no longer be included in subs

You’ll pay a fee and it will only get you access to older, much cheaper models

If you want access to that dank AI sour diesel, you’re going to need to pay for every token you use. No more subsidies

And it make sense. The subsidies were just a Ponzi scheme

For those that don’t know, when you pay $200 a month for an AI sub, you get thousands of dollars of tokens

These AI companies actively lose tremendous amounts of money because of these subscriptions. GDPs of most countries every year are lost on your $200 Claude Max sub

The investor money is running dry. IPOs are coming because of this. And with IPOs need to come profitability

The golden age of paying $200 a month and being able to code on 40 Claude Code instances and getting a usage reset every 5 minutes are about to die

The party couldn’t continue ever. You can’t just leverage the entire global economy for years and expect nothing to break. Now it’s time to pay up

Means a few things:

1. Time to be responsible when it comes to which models you use. You don’t need Fable 5 for GPT 5.5 Xhigh for everything. Build the skill of knowing when to use cheap models

2. Local LLMS/hardware will come even more in demand. I’m currently running GLM on my Mac Studio. It’s great. Is it Fable? No. But it gets the job done for free on simple tasks. Learn about local LLMs

3. This is the beginning of the wealth gap expansion. Those that can afford to spend $10,000 a month on Fable 5 will build incredible products that eat up more and more of the economy. Those that can’t afford Fable 5 will have an insane disadvantage

4. The government will need to step in eventually. There will be too much civil unrest. I hope the answer isn’t free money. That won’t do anything. I hope the answer is education/access to AI resources for ALL. Universal Basic Opportunity

5. You need to seriously reconsider where your money goes every month. If you are complaining about AI prices and in the back of your mind you know your skill set is becoming quickly irrelevant, all while spending money every month on Netflix, Xbox Live, Paramount +, drugs, DoorDash, Uber, and other things that bring nothing positive to your life, you are simply doing it wrong. AI is an investment in yourself. It’s an investment in your relevance to the global economy. You need to make sure you make that investment

The pieces on the board are quickly moving around. The rules are changing. The battlefield is shifting. If you’re not strategizing accordingly, you’re cooked.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Connecting young people to digital networks serves no purpose if they remain disconnected from themselves, others, and their own interiority. We must help young people rediscover silence, reflection, the ability to ask questions, the depth of relationships, and openness to transcendence. To listen to the soul, we must lend an ear, because the soul's voice is not a shout, but a whisper.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The Holy Spirit challenges us today regarding our relationship with technology and the ongoing digital revolution. Technology has the power to heal, connect, educate and protect our common home; but it can also divide, exclude and generate new forms of injustice. #MagnificaHumanitas

@EricRSammons Please look into the leading state sponsor of terrorism. Do basic research and your answer will change. Them chanting “death to America” doesn’t meet threshold?

Bishop Michael Burbidge of @arlingtonchurch has denounced U.S. President Joe Biden’s stated intention to codify a national right to abortion should Democrats win control of Congress. https://t.co/lDG318Y0qO

Studying meningiomas from our patients, our residents Drs. Jim Bayley and Caroline Hadley worked with @akashjp330 @KlischTiemo @akdes @ozgunharmanci to move the needle on understanding meningiomas. Read about it in Science Advances. @NIHBrainTumor https://t.co/JQATY5xlD6

@DArmondSJ Mine was at the parish where my grandfather was a deacon and the priest was preaching that Good Friday and said, “Death did not get the last word. Love did, for God is love.”

@PappaSciarappa This is peak fatherhood right here.

@helloreilly I understand the sentiment. However, that could be true of literally ANYBODY you know. Doctors and farmers on average commit more sexual abuse than any other professions.

@GChristiemd I’m in the process of compiling our COVID patients chest CTs in order to do a video timeline and pointing out specific mutations. I’d love to hear your experiences. Could you DM me/email me? I’m in MD and would like to get a better understanding of various regional mutations?

Abortion advocates are hysterical today because they know they are losing their grip on this country.

More people are waking up & seeing abortion for the violence & cruelty it is. We demand justice.

Life is a human right & we won’t stop fighting until every child is protected.

Was on my way to Padre Pio Shrine and was nearly killed in an auto accident due to a motorcycle gang. Please pray for all of us. God is merciful!
