TBF Stripe is a (effective!) middleman for (very common!) transactions, whereas Anthropic is selling a service with the potential to replace full time employees. It takes a lot of transaction margins to add up to how much a corporation will pay to replace a department of 10 employees earning $100K down to one person... So in this context I don't think frequency of use is very illuminating!

P.S. I'm so glad you're able to derive some joy from these new technologies, but I would also offer a soft suggestion to watch Season 3 of Westworld. It's probably not as good aesthetically as the previous two, but it's also pretty separated and deals throughout with the concept of AI therapists/friends, and how they might be a short-term comfort but a long-term threat to our individuality. Obviously a chat here and there with current LLMs is nowhere near that yet, but thought you might find it interesting!
