OPENAI BURNS THE BOATS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Anthropic was dominating the AI coding space and had a consistently better model than OpenAI for almost two years. OpenAI's response was to set the entire business model on fire and move to a different arena. By releasing GPT-5, a model with the same performance benchmarks as Claude on coding, at a cost of $10 per million tokens, every application layer company that was previously dependent on Anthropic's price point switched overnight. The move signals OpenAI's willingness to prevent the AI coding market from existing.
