MODERATORS
In a few years, corpos will be desperate for programmers. Their codebases will be in shambles and the frontier models (that can barely make anything out of that mess) will not be so heavily subsidized anymore. (Or permanently offline.)
I think it will happen eventually but I doubt it will be in just a few years, hope to be proven wrong tho
