Imtiaz Ali has again made a film that few people would watch, fewer would understand, even fewer would like and all of us would love after few years. Fantastic film though 💖
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.
You will get over most bad stuff others did to you sooner than you think.
What will pinch you more, in the long term, is how you behaved with others.
In challenging moments, try to be the better person and do the right thing, not for others, but for yourself.
Being at peace with yourself is a privilege.
Non-Punjabi experts about Punjab need to calm down. No one in Punjab is either surprised or perturbed at AAP MPs jumping the ship to BJP because most of these people did not raise any issues of Punjab. So, no, Punjab isn't feeling betrayed.
If you want a rare life, you have to be delusional. Doubt can enter your mind, and it can sound reasonable, but if you entertain it too much it will slowly drag you down into stagnation. I'd rather reap the lesson from massive failure than do nothing because it's not "realistic."
My dear young person,
Don’t succumb to mediocrity. There’s enough of it going around. Aspire for craftsmanship, as that is what leads to joy and beauty.
The world needs more people who’re proud of what they make, and less of those who couldn’t care less.
I’m becoming increasingly convinced that the secret to maximizing joy is to remove yourself as much as possible from drama, learn how to take no shit and stay as intellectually curious as possible. Never let any dumb ideology stop you from questioning things. Even things you thought you knew. Stand your ground on what you know to be true from personal experience but don’t be afraid to shift if your intuition guides you in a new direction or new information comes your way. The most loyal & trustworthy people know how to protect their energy.
Floods have devastated North India. Lives have been lost, livelihoods destroyed.
A party that claims to be INDIA FIRST sends aid abroad but forgets its own people.
You, who gives tags every single dissenter anti-national, where is your nationalism now?

During certain moments in life, when we must walk alone, we are still accompanied by trees, an overarching sky, and stars as our witnesses. Even in our loneliest times, we are never truly alone, if only we choose to believe it.
