ChatGPT is down, the new CEO is threatening to quit, and the majority of employees are doing the same… so I decided to look up some alternatives

The name Anthropic came up a few times, but I’m not familiar with them. I’ve seen Claude mentioned in the past

Anthropic PBC is an American artificial intelligence (AI) startup company, founded by former members of OpenAI.[3][4] Anthropic develops general AI systems and large language models.[5] It is a public-benefit corporation, and has been connected to the effective altruism movement.

As of July 2023, Anthropic had raised US$1.5 billion in funding. In September, Amazon announced an investment of up to US$4 billion, followed by a $2 billion commitment from Google the next month https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic

So are they more ethical / committed to AI safety, or more of the same? Does the product compare well to ChatGPT?

    You pay for every “token” that goes into or comes out of the model.

    You can loosely think of a token as as word - though it’s not exactly right.

      Yeah I know about the concept of tokens. Was looking for some general cost info. But I guess if it’s usage based then it’s too subjective.
