Karl Kahn sues Anthropic over Max 5x and 20x plans
Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI, is facing a lawsuit from Karl Kahn, who says its pricey Max 5x and Max 20x plans don't actually give users five or 20 times more access than the cheaper Claude Pro plan.
Kahn claims he hit his weekly cap way too fast, calling Anthropic's marketing "fraudulent" and asking for compensation for subscribers who feel shortchanged.
Users split over Claude max limits
The lawsuit has sparked lively debate online: some users agree the limits are disappointing, while others find the premium plans useful for intense coding sessions.
Kahn's experience highlights bigger questions about how AI companies measure usage and whether they're being clear with customers, especially those relying on these tools for demanding tasks like software development.
