Cat Wu, a high-profile product manager who previously served as the product lead for Claude Code, is joining OpenAI to lead product management for core products. Wu announced her move on X after leaving Anthropic last week, according to Techmeme.

Expansion ES reports that OpenAI and Anthropic have entered a price war to attract enterprise customers, which has nearly halved the cost of using AI models since the spring. In April, Uber limited its use of AI after spending its entire annual AI budget in four months, with roughly 5,000 engineers spending up to $2,000 per month on tokens for Anthropic's Claude Code. Since then, the Silicon Data index shows token prices for language models dropped from a high of $2.07 in late May to $0.92 at the end of October.
