I'll concede that trying to soak Altman for $14k/mo when he's already hemorrhaging billions is a bit like pissing in the river. I might ask what you plan to do with the $14k in tokens you're burning. If you've got a material use case for them, and Altman wants to sell you $20 for a nickel, go wild. But half the joke of AI is that you're burning tokens to do nothing. That's why businesses recoil as soon as they're asked to justify at-cost AI spend. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] mattyroses@lemmy.today 2 points 3 months ago "every little bit helps" said the old woman as she pissed in the sea . . . permalink fedilink source parent
