AccBalanced · x · 2026-08-24
According to the FT, Anthropic's most powerful model represents just 11% of corporate AI spending on Ramp. The primary driver is cost; Fable 5 is too expensive, while cheaper models are sufficient for most tasks. This suggests the AI race is shifting from "who has the smartest model?" to "who can deliver enough intelligence at the right price?" making price a critical feature at scale.
