WSJ这篇把OpenAI的窘境说清了,C端用户再多也不如开发者每天烧token来钱,所以降价是必然,但ChatGPT变超级应用是在抄Anthropic的作业。
WSJ 报道,OpenAI 正考虑大幅降价以应对与 Anthropic 的竞争。Anthropic 增长主要来自开发者和编码工作流,Claude Code 消耗大量 token,已让企业团队将其融入日常工作。OpenAI 虽在消费品牌上更大,但企业市场才是关键——企业为编码智能体、自动化等工具付费。同时,OpenAI 在 IPO 前准备对 ChatGPT 进行史上最大改版,将其打造成涵盖编码、AI 智能体、图像生成和商业软件的超级应用,改版将在未来几周陆续推出。OpenAI 将更多资源投入编码工具 Codex,目标实现 Codex 工程负责人所说的“个人智能体”。
WSJ: OpenAI is considering deep price reductions as competition with Anthropic intensifies.
Anthropic is pressuring OpenAI because its strongest growth is coming from developer and coding workflows, specially with Claude Code, where users can generate huge token volume every day and quickly make Claude part of their normal work.
OpenAI is still the bigger consumer brand, but in this fight the valuable prize is not casual chat users, it is enterprise teams paying metered bills for coding agents, automation, and internal tools.
The difference is that Anthropic seems to have a sharper wedge in high-spend technical work, while OpenAI has to defend ChatGPT's broad lead and stop Claude from becoming the default tool inside companies.
