Original Reddit post

With every major release from one of these AI companies, all the major subs in this space are filled with posts like “I have always been a fan of Anthropic but I’m switching to Codex”, “I feel like I have been betrayed by X :(“ and it just pisses me off. Sure, having issues with not getting your moneys worth with these hefty subscriptions is definitely reasonable and we should voice our disappointment loudly. And having a favourite MODEL to work with is also fine. But I see so many people take that and go much further with it, coming off as almost emotionally attached to a particular company itself. Especially when some people talk about being aligned more with the “values” of one organisation than with that of another. Having personal values is awesome but believing that these companies stick to their advertised values and not treating them all as belonging to the same conglomerate leeching on society is beyond gullible and just funny. I believe our choice between these options should be based on a small set of real factors of the MODELS and UX alone - price and value for money, intelligence, speed, reliability, style and maybe a couple of other factors.
