The general problem the average user has with a metered instead of provisioned billing model for computer services is you can’t easily control for cost overruns. From the old days customers getting stung for hosting costs when slashdotted or DOSed, to last decades microservice shock horror of the CI retry loop that burns money overnight to today’s AI that you basically have no idea how efficient the AI will be while it ponders your question, you are just setting yourself up for disappointment and cost overruns and a feeling that you’re not getting the value for money you got last week etc.

Is this an actual issue aside from people letting their autonomous agents run overnight?
