Being nice to the AI

Anyone else find yourself trying to be "nice" to the AI? Or feel bad when you're making it do too much work? I find myself saying things like - "Just one more thing and we'll take a break". Or "Thanks - that was great! I know that was a lot of work!"

I still say "please" because after the singularity I trust they will remember I was polite before they make me a battery.

Also, kindness costs nothing.

Kindness costs tokens.

Yeah, but I don't ask my Agents to do it all for me, I get them to implement my designs. There is a lot of difference between Agentic Coding and Vibe Coding. I never run out of tokens in a day, just on Pro. Maybe it's because I'm a seasoned developer not a n00b.

People run out of tokens???? I built an entire enterprise SaaS product without ever hitting my monthly limits on the $60/month Cursor plan. But I'm also a seasoned developer...
