I keep saying that the funniest and best way to fight ai is use the free plans for dumb things

They can multiply it by 1000 and my final bill will still be 0

The plan was always to make you reliant and then pull the plug so they could charge whatever they want. It’s still the plan.

If Microsoft didn't have a death grip on government computers I'd be uninstalling

Good, maybe people will realize these chatbots are not worth it. Then my electric bill will go down.

They’re going to build all those data centers and probably abandon most of them like one of those storefronts that not even Spirit Halloween will use

I use Claude professional monthly, and it was dumbed down to such an extent , you have to tell it at least, 3 times what you need. Even if the first prompts are perfect it does what it wants!!! Honestly it’s more trouble than it’s worth at that point

Fun fact; datacenters get way lower electricity rates than corporations or individuals. Utility companies just charge us peons more.

The real price you pay is the skills you miss out developing yourself.

Remember people, using AI in any capacity is a cost to the company implementing it. Even if it's only a few cents, burn through as many free tokens as you can.
