<p>Lol. They obviously have intrinsic cost, the floor being the cost of electricity. It’s hilarious how we are throwing critical thinking out the window when it comes to evaluating biased sources of info.</p>

<p>I spend about $3k/month (subsidized by the Claude Max plan).<p>I guess I fall under level 3 (2?): I typically have 3-6 agents working simultaneously on the same feature, they each make worktrees, code, run tests and put up PR’s. I also have Github actions which scan for regressions and security issues on each PR.<p>It makes my development cycle extremely fast: I request a feature and just look at Github and look for changes to my human readable outputs, settle on a PR, merge, repeat.<p>The issue is that I am now the bottleneck in my system. I find myself working basically non-stop, because there is always more to do. (Yes I know I can automate the acceptance criteria but that turns to slop real fast)</p>

<p>Truly makes no sense. I pay for the $200/month plan and end up using about $3k/month worth of API costs. I imagine that the only reason they haven’t cut me off is because my habits serve as good training data for them.<p>Guess they’ve decided to move in the direction of allocating compute primarily to power users and enterprise.<p>But power users are not a sticky customer base. I just bought the ChatGPT Pro plan and would immediately switch over if the model performance is better and/or I get more compute.</p>

<p>Yes, someone is on the other side of the losing trade, but how many people (not firms) do you know who write contracts for short term options?<p>I personally don’t know any, and I worked at one of the biggest HFT firms for a few years.<p>The losing side(s) of these positions are heavily hedged, and are happily making money on volume and volatility. (And making record profits this year)</p>

<p>The author could be technically competent, but I think he’s completely failed to recognize one of the core principles of getting recognition and promotions at work:<p>Who are you bringing with you?<p>As in, who else gets recognition and success as a result of you doing well? If it’s your boss, great, promotion likely. If it’s your skip, even better.<p>If the result of your grand project is that it solely makes you look good, nobody else is incentivized to support you in any capacity. It’s much more likely that it will have the exact opposite effect: you will be seen as a selfish and ambitious threat.</p>
