Back then, a $200/month subscription would have cost ~$2,700 at API prices. SemiAnalysis repeated the experiment across all provider tiers using long coding tasks until the weekly limits were exhausted, and the current figures are noticeably higher. For Anthropic, the number has nearly tripled: claude-max-20x for $200/month is equivalent to $8,000/month via the API. OpenAI is even worse: chatgpt-pro-20x for the same $200 draws a whopping $14,000/month. SemiAnalysis believes that all new models and features will be held back exclusively for API users. And Fable (Mythos), as already known, will disappear from subscriptions starting June 22 and will only be available via extra usage. submitted by /u/andrewaltair
