Also, usage and billing takes a DAY to update. On top of that, there are no billing caps or credit-based billing. They put the entire burden on users not to ensure that they don't have a mega bill.

Usage updates much quicker in the AI Studio UI, near realtime (but can take ~5 min in edge cases).

We are working on billing caps along with credits right now. Billing caps will land first in Jan!

Hopefully the article's author is fully aware of the real risk of giving Alphabet his CC details on a project which has no billing caps.
