Don’t companies also limit the number of computers, staplers and pens in the office? …It somehow has to be worth it. And they have different contracts available, you can set a limit with most APIs, bookkeeping can look up how much they paid… I think working somewhat efficiently is a normal part of doing business.
Normally, companies put the burden onto to us, which allows them to quickly scale, but because AI costs a fortune per-prompt, they got kinda shot themselves in a foot.
I mean sometimes we get that with other things as well. Like wasting cloud storage permanently. Or printing full color images on the expensive printer. Sometimes there are expensive supplies which shouldn’t be wasted. Idk, kind of depends on the job. If you’re a bartender or pizza chef, you’d also track the expensive ingredients and not serve an arbitrary amount. I guess AI is about the same.
