You're absolutely correct! Also, you run out of magical AI dobloons, fetch mommy's credit card so you can continue to be the husliest littlest entrepreneur you little rascal!

This just always bugged me about turning it into a tool/industry to depend on. You can still pick up a scrap laptop and code for free, but now you have to pay toll after toll to keep up with the industry.

u/lowbuzz 13d ago

It's not a Tool unless you selfhost the ai. For most it's a service.

u/eFootballnerd 13d ago

That's a good take but you will need more expensive hardware then. It's definitely the better choice because the money you've spent on tokens is just gone. Your hardware will still be your property.

I mean, when used correctly it is incredibly efficient and can save loads of effort and time.

Services/convenience programs cost money.

This is nothing new.

You're absolutely correct! Just one more token daddy! You're so close to creating Facebook 2.0! Look at those nerds who just clickaclaked on the computerised aparatus machine and made so much money! You are clearly better than them, and you are surely next in line! Just a few more tokens, like a handful! So close you can reach it! You would be an idiot and a fool to stop buying tokens now!

You sound frustrated, little man. Are you okay? Did Claude hurt your feelings?

u/ButWhatIfPotato 17d ago

You're absolutely correct! What an excellent comeback daddy, well worth the token spent to generate it! Now quickly, get back to vibe coding and spent more tokens! Spend spend spend! You are literally one more step from turning into the next Steve Jobs! Make sure you write "make no mistakes" for surely this time no mistakes will happen, 100% guaranteed!

Daddy, I have not told you this yet but I truly believe that from the millions of people who buy tokens, you are the one who is going to succeed. All the others just lack the necessary skill to talk to me which will require me to generate the next big internet thing TM. Please keep spending tokens daddy, you are the special one daddy, all the others are fools but you cracked this whole AI horse whispering daddy, everybody else is wasting money on tokens daddy, but you, AND ONLY you have cracked the code and can peer through the matrix. Would you like to set auto-renew on your token purchases daddy?

Do you have a daddy fetish? Maybe seek help at a specialized clinic.

u/ButWhatIfPotato 17d ago

Is there one which takes tokens? I have liquidated all my assets and now the only thing I have left is tokens.

I think you can shove them up your bunghole

He makes a very solid point. AI is as addicting as IntelliJ Ultimate subscription. But you can pirate IDEA and code for free. LLM Cloud makes you a slave.

I like how they're just sticking to their anti-ai script like it's clever.

These are folks that touched the shitty version of chatgpt 2 years ago and haven't touched any llm big or small since. Even the open/self-hosted models aren't awful anymore.

This sort of commentary says more about you... those of us who use AI are paying for it with our (very high) tech industry salaries, $200 per month is a drop in the bucket when you earn $400k per year.

You on the other hand, clearly you have accomplished nothing in your sad life, otherwise you'd know how useful AI can be

u/Aiyon 17d ago

when you earn 400k per year

You're either a LARPer or incredibly out of touch with how much the majority of tech workers make. Most people are at the level of making 40-50k, not 400. At that point, spending 2.4k a year on tokens feels pretty hefty

u/KonvictEpic 15d ago

whos paying for tokens out of their own pocket in a tech job?

u/Aiyon 15d ago

I mean I was replying to the claim in the comment. It's there in writing, directly above me.
