I love how corpos can just change the rules at will.

Edit: New prices:

And if you look at the old pricing structure, some of the models are increasing by 27x

Incredibly predictable. I told my manager this is exactly what would happen. They'd hook us into AI and then jack up prices after we adapted the business for it. He actually thought pricing would go down as the tech "gets more efficient". Lmao.

The cult mentality over AI in tech is crazy to see. I feel like I don't even know half my co-workers anymore, some of these people actually use pronouns to refer to a fucking chat bot. It's unreal. I feel like it's not even worth the money anymore, there was always BS in this industry, but this is getting ridiculous. I need to GTFO.
