I saw an article talking about how prices for AI are cheap as hell right now cuz they're trying to get people used to not thinking (or programing) for themselves. Then when people are dependent on it they're planning on jacking the price up.
The prices are already going up, look at anthropic's price hikes, or the GitHub copilot ones. You're right it is just the start though.
Axios just announced that AI is now more expensive than hiring a human.
That’s only partially true.
The other half is that “almost as good” AI like GLM’s coder plan, Kimi, and dozens of other providers are dirt cheap. And getting cheaper, fast.
