Is Bedrock a "middleman?" I believe that they run all inference inside of AWS data centers, on their own infrastructure.

Their new endpoint even promises zero operator access [0]

> I use their services, but I frankly don't care who provides it. I'll chase the chepest/best and have no issue switching from one to another.

For the hyperscalers, there is an ease of remaining in the Azure/AWS/GCP fabric from a data provenance perspective, particularly for regulated industries or large, risk-averse enterprises. There's also, of course, a certain network egress tax in most cases.

As long as token costs are being subsidized, I don't mind that this is the result of the consumer surplus.

I regret having signed up for an annual plan at this point; the rug-pulls are increasingly irksome.

How are they "ruining" Amazon with these launches? That is not clear to me.

I find the consistent anthropomorphization to be grating as well

> If you’ve got the manpower and talent, why not play with it and see if anything makes money. In-house startups with stable capital, all that

We are no longer in a zero-interest rate environment, so I think those experiments are more costly than they were a few years go

You can find the warn notices here. [0] From a quick script I wrote up, it seems that ~60% of layoffs noted on 1/26/2026 are from individual contributors

Bannon for a while was deeply ingrained in Hollywood. He still earns residuals on episodes of Seinfeld [0], and owns the film rights to Michael Lewis' Liars Poker (even supposedly writing a screenplay for it himself) [1].

> Claude: they barely have a signin system at all. Multiple account support doesn’t exist. The minimum seat count for business is nonsense. The data retention policies are weak.

Please give me an option for a password (or passkey) or literally anything else that doesn't require either linking with google or going through an email flow for every login

> Connect them with clear APIs that don't have to change all that often, and you can build pretty big things.

Emphasis on clear. It's a challenging endeavor to properly draw and enforce these service boundaries.

I've also found (anecdotal) significant success in just throwing in available context before prompting. I've written multiple automations in this way as well.
