> sam altman says ai will soon be billed like electricity - by how much you use

phew, that’s great news, i pay nothing

@xyla I'm sure they are working on making everyone else pay too somehow
@xyla werent they already doing that ktindnf
@ezri only for businesses i believe
@xyla microsoft AI teams workspaces for enterprise
@xyla @ezri copilot had actual unlimited use on their base models which people promptly abused the same way every "unlimited storage" offer in history has been, except instead of a few datahoarders it was business majors making token use a fucking metric for being a good employee

everyone else did weekly/monthly allowance on subscriptions but use our client (or get banned) OR extremely expensive api pricing that subsidizes the former
@aura @ezri if my employer would use tokens as a measure of me being a good employee i’d make a script that feeds the clanker so much bullshit the employer in question ends up paying millions in tokens
@xyla @aura instead of clanker it should be cranker because all it does is jerk you off about how smart you are
@xyla “billed like electricity” you mean like they will lie to you in your face about how much you actually owe to them and inflate your usage hoping you wouldn’t dispute this?
