AI vendor lock-in bites back
theregister.com- half the dudes here are locked in on claude code
- it is not going to be pretty when they 5x their prices or degrade their models in some way
Umm, are these guys sending requests at a public inference endpoint or are they doing more sophisticated work like training etc?
Lock in is pretty easy these days. Just a dummy example, Claude models are trained on their `str_replace_based_edit_tool` edit tool[1] which is very different from OpenAI's `apply_patch` tool[2].
