per token llm pricing has come to my work and i had to try really hard not to laugh at all the people who burned through their months allotment in a single day. corporate ai is cooked, it's extremely done now

too bad for the people who spent the last few months developing ai workflows that are now completely unworkable with no alternatives

coulda just listened to the moral and ethical arguments against though

or if that doesn't work the people who looked at the underlying economics and accurately predicted massive price hikes

or the fact that you're willingly deskilling yourself by buying in

or the fact that it just doesn't work very well at all

not too much sympathy here actually

@hannah @ana how is it possible that Google has enabled ai search on every single search query? It seems like the cost would be too much.
@warrenkc @hannah @ana AI on every search is a great opportunity for running experiments, as well as marketing their paid AI tiers.
Free product samples, basically.
