   Am I just out of touch with our times if I think hand-wavey usage limits on a 500$ subscription is crazy?

      Im surprised some countries dont have consumer protection laws that would force them to be more explicit/accurate

         but to do accurate billing, they would have to tell us when our usage triggers a guard rail and causes our query to be rerouted or denied.

         And if they do that accurately, there's no stopping someone from mapping the guard rails.

         Clearly that outcome is more uncomfortable than what we have now, which is enough people seem to be okay with vague billing.

            First, I wouldn't put it past OpenAI to charge even if your prompt triggered the guardrails, transferring responsibility is their style.

            Second, how does vague billing prevent someone from mapping the "I'm sorry, I can't help you with that" style of responses to map the guardrails?
