That‘s my guess too. Anthropic‘s business model was abysmal already but now the IPO looks like a really bad Ponzi scheme that is guaranteed to lose your money.
Wondered about that. But in no case would a guy like me suddenly agree to pay for ChatGPT. It has its uses, but I probably wouldn’t give a meager $5 a month.

You mean subsidizing even harder - there have been absolutely no technological advances that would allow for a price drop of 77%, especially with inflation calculated in. This is the equivalent of your crack dealer giving you 4 times the drugs for your money to ensure you and your whole community get hooked.
