Anthropic, an AI company, is implementing weekly rate limits for its paid subscribers due to excessive usage of Claude Code. The decision stems from a small percentage of users, less than 5%, running the coding tool continuously in the background. This 24/7 usage consumed disproportionately high computing power, prompting Anthropic to introduce the new limits. The changes, set to take effect in late August, aim to prevent resource abuse and ensure fair access for all users. While impacting a small segment of subscribers, the new rate limits are designed to maintain the stability and performance of the Claude Code service. The move underscores the challenge of balancing user freedom with the need for responsible resource management in AI-powered platforms.
