Anthropic is cooked the moment GPT-5.6 Sol becomes broadly available.
If OpenAI can offer similar or better intelligence at dramatically lower cost, then the competition shifts away from a pure model race and becomes an economics race.
In that context, OpenAI is clearly attacking inference cost hard now, reinforcing its strategic advantage.
As a result, you can’t compete with “smarter” if the other guy is both smarter and cheaper.
