By Zimbo · October 24, 2026

AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: a small robot carrying a laptop walks out of Anthropic's shop, past a FULL PRICE sign and an arms-crossed robot shopkeeper, toward OpenAI's green shop where a crowd of cheerful robots streams in under a giant yellow 30% OFF banner.
Replit moved $100M+ of AI spend from Anthropic to OpenAI after a 30% discount — and told the room ChatGPT is better now.Zimbo for AI News Page
