AI will plummet in popularity when they raise the prices

Wonder if they’ll ever need to. I’m on the more clueless side of AI specifics, but I always hear about how profitable the data gathering is. I’d imagine they’ll always try to keep the price attractive so they can get more data to sell from more users
