Huang wants employees to pay half of their salary back to the company ? There is no escaping the company store, eh ?

And CAD designers didn't have to pay half of their salary to use the CAD tools the company wanted them to use. How did that guy get to be in charge ?

    I didn't read it that way. I think he's saying "bosses: if you're paying a $100k salary to a dev and not also paying $50k for tokens, your dev isn't working hard enough".

    Which is still utterly absurd, because it implies that a harder working dev would be spending more time chatting to a bot.
