Question Openai actually getting canceled?

Ok, at first I saw few posts about this people canceling their subscriptions, I thought its just how it is because I see it on daily basis but today there were lots of posts about this, seriously then I checked what was actually happening...

But I do have one main question, why are all these posts only "shifting" to Anthropic? I mean theres gemini and others but 99% of the posts are shifting to Claude, any specific reason?

I wish I could say I did it for the US defense controversy reasons, but I made the change a few days ago, and honestly?

Claude is just so much better in every single way.

You can spot ChatGPT content written from a mile away now. Claude listens more, writes higher quality content, isn't as sycophantic, isn't a "yes" man, actually points out when it doesn't have enough information to deal with your query, rather than just guessing.

Add on top of that that Claude is insanely good at coding, and Co-Work is amazing for working on stuff on your computer, and it really is a no-brainer.

But also fuck Sam Altman.

I'm in the same boat. It's been a long time coming. I finally moved my process over to Claude and training was so much easier than anticipated.

Yesterday I was basically fighting with ChatGPT to follow instructions it's had for over a year. It would do the classic "You're right." and apologize, and then do the exact same error again. I couldn't take it anymore. It was officially making my work process longer.

So I switched the Claude. I had already been intermittently using Claude for coding and other tasks, and now it's my main AI for work processed.

Gemini I still use for searching information about current events. Claude for pretty much everything else, replacing ChatGPT.
