Claude Pro costs $20 / month which gives you access to their latest models.

In the long run, tokens may become a new signal of inequality — access to the most powerful models could be limited to those who can afford them.

200USD a month really is not that much. Especially not for an employer who is used to pay 150-250k a year for an engineer.

Especially for the value it provides.

I don't think that the majority of HN users are employers who are used to pay 150k-250k a year

No, but a large proportion are likely employees of these employers

I mean, the 100$ plan is less than the hourly rate of any consultant / senior dev in developed countries. So if it can save even one hour a month, it's cost efficient for the customer (at the current, subsidized rates, of course).

So are the majority of people on HN senior devs from a developed country, who like using LLMs for coding? I find that hard to believe
