    So many negative comments here. Among my circle, it’s not uncommon for people to have multiple $200 accounts. This seems like it would make things easier for them by letting them use one account instead of juggling two or more.

    What they’re doing with billions of tokens every week, beats me. But these users absolutely do exist.

      What intrigues me more is how are they not done building whatever they were building? LLMs have been jaw-droppingly good for a good 6 months now.

      The people spending thousands on LLM bills a month should've been done building significant chunks of Microsoft's or Google's software portfolio by now.

      I guess what I mean is how is producing code still the limiting factor in whatever they're doing?

      I produce a firehose of personal software and I still cannot max out a $20 plan.

        For me it's an autonomous research loop that runs 24/7.
