really interesting work from SemiAnalysis. helps customers understand what their subscription buys, and investors understand whether providing that much usage at that price makes business sense.
my only critique would be that “5x more value” is a bit clickbaity for something so time-sensitive. it's a snapshot amid fierce competition, models leapfrogging each other, and rapid experimentation with pricing, allowances and marketing. look again in a few weeks and the comparison could look dramatically different, potentially even reverse.
would be really interesting to track this over time alongside model capability improvements. we'd get a clearer picture of how long these advantages last, and whether better models arrive with equally generous usage or tighter limits.
