I used to love to make silly websites or apps with new technologies. Been doing it since flash. I have a pretty decent hit rate! It’s not unusually to get half a million or so people try one of them.

But with AI that model is just totally broken because the running cost is so high.

If I have half a million people come play my silly AI game that I have no wish to monetise - I am gonna be POOR very fast.

But the article says:

  When someone uses your Claude-powered app:

  They authenticate with their existing Claude account
  Their API usage counts against their subscription, not yours
  You pay nothing for their usage
  No one needs to manage API keys

So how would that impact you?

That's still no good. The only real way it could work is by having models running locally with WASM.
