Your reply answers how you are able to spend money, not if it is returning sufficient dollar value per spend..

> I genuinely challenge someone spending $5-$10k a month to demonstrate how that turns into $50-$100k in value.

The problem with HN is that everyone here thinks like an engineer, not like a business owner.

$10k a month on tokens is just not that much when you're already making $2M per engineer. If their productivity has increased even 10% then the spend was well worth it.

Case in point, Meta made 33% more revenue this earnings report. Now you can nitpick and ask for attribution down to the dollar, but macro trends speak for themselves.
