Meta and Microsoft sharply cut Claude usage

Meta and Microsoft, two of Anthropic's biggest enterprise customers, are cutting back on Claude. Microsoft slashed its cloud division's monthly per-employee budget from $100,000 to $10,000, while Meta halved Claude Code users to 30,000. Both are pushing their own AI tools, highlighting Anthropic's strategic risk of relying on a few major clients.
