Why, I remember when this was all just Arpanet. I'm over educated, opinionated, and quite possibly wrong about everything. Published author, banned comics publisher, ethicist, cranky old philosopher careered in information architecture. AKA: I contain multitudes. Black lives matter. Trans lives matter. Your life matters. End Colonialism. Free Palestine. Eat the Rich. Avatar: A crop of "The Letter" by Delphin Enjolras, against a background of prairie flowers.

Ed Zitron talks about how #MS switching to token based billing for its #LLM, and other #AI companies doing the same to enterprise customers, people are now starting to see how much the AI subsidized the market to get people hooked.
Just like any drug dealer, first hit is free, man.
Quote: This is the direct result of training every single AI user to use these services as much as humanely possible while obfuscating how much they really cost. Every single major company demanding that every single worker “use AI as much as possible” has done so while either fundamentally ignoring or being entirely disconnected from their actual token burn, and as companies are forced to pay the actual costs, I’m not sure how you can economically justify any investment in this technology.

Moderne Software heute: Du zahlst eine Lizenz, besitzt aber nichts. Ohne Konto startet sie nicht, ohne Internet »unerwarteter Fehler«. Sie sammelt Daten – natürlich nur für »Sicherheit«, »Qualität« und dein »Erlebnis«. Updates kommen automatisch, Funktionen verschwinden automatisch. Und irgendwann wird dein Gerät Elektroschrott, weil der Dienst abgeschaltet wird. Kein Bug, sondern Geschäftsmodell.
