The problem is the oauth and their stance on bypassing that. You'd want to use your subscription, and they probably can detect that and ban users. They hold all the power there.
It’s a dynamic, subscription based service, not a static asset like a video.
Why would it be the exact same one? Now that we have the code, it's trivial to have it randomize the prompt a bit on different requests.
The real value here will be in using other cheap models with the cc harness.
So not even close to Opus, then?
These are a year behind, if not more. And they're probably clunky to use.
