Optimistic. My money is on everyone forgetting about this by next week.

That’s why I unsubbed today! Otherwise I might forget.

It will be interesting to see if this permeates out into the general public who already use ChatGPT or maybe it won't since it doesn't mention ChatGPT which is the stronger known brand rather then OpenAI.

More and more of the press is owned by oligarchs who are putting their thumbs on the scales, so that could be a factor.

It depends. Normies don't care, but a bunch of them are free tier users anyway. The people who care are disproportionately on the $200/month moneymaking plan; losing a bunch of them could hurt, especially if it snowballs the consensus that Claude Code is the serious choice for software engineering.

For one small data point, my Signal GC of software buddies had four people switch their subscriptions from Codex to Claude Max last night.

How many $200/month does the US government cover though? I'd say probably a lot. Especially with how much extra the DoD will pay to get OpenAI to cross it's "red lines" - on day two.

Yeah just wait until the next model comes out. People will be riding Sam’s dick again in no time.

I'm sure his sister will appreciate others lining up so he leaves her alone forever.

Yeah, myself I use ChatGPT, not OpenAI!
