I really don't want this to start being the norm

I don't see how it won't be. They lose insane amounts of money on subscription plans. I'm sure they still lose money on usage-based billing, but probably not as much.

  • I assume consumers aren’t a big note in their bottom line. I’m not actually very sure about that, just an assumption.

    What I wonder however is if these tools will become something I use at work only. $100/month is already a massive stretch budget wise. If these models keep devouring tokens there’s no way I’d get the same usage time out of them for $100 in usage credits.

    I just don’t think I’d use them much at all at home.
