As someone who develops #LLM tools, I really appreciate Google's approach compared to (un-)OpenAI's.

With Google, I can hit their API while I'm doing my development work for free, and only when I scale up do I get charged. (u)OAI, on the other hand, requires me to pay for every single API hit. Which makes development costly. Especially since I regularly make dumb mistakes in my code!

This will cost them over time.
