I do think it's a crazy thing to say, but not because of the amount. I mean, if putting in more money produces more value, why not $10,000 a day or a million? Does adding more tokens after $1000 stop working for some reason?

Forget about agents or AI: the amount of money that it makes sense to spend on software engineering for a particular company is highly dependent on the specifics of that company.

Perhaps for them this number makes sense, but it's kind of crazy to extrapolate that to everyone as some kind of benchmark. It would be far more interesting to hear how they place a value on the code produced.

I have a harsher take down-thread, but the simulation testing (what they call DTU) is actually interesting and a useful insight into grounding agent behavior.
