The personal max and teams plan actually are an amazing bargain compared to the API PAYG cost you get with Enterprise. I guess they really need their Enterprise features though, otherwise they could just tell users to expense a $200 max sub. Enterprises gonna Enterprise.

> What do they have to show for it?

My guess is nothing you can see right now, since it likely takes a lot longer for any substantial external-facing changes to roll out broadly. Internally I'm sure several features have moved faster. I've noticed this at Salesforce where it certainly seems like things that would have taken a few weeks take a few days now. This doesn't translate directly to more money, just more potential to make money.

> Are they out of ideas on what to build next, or something?

Well, what is there for Uber to build next? They have their ride hailing platform. It works. They have adapted it for other kinds of delivery (food, groceries, "anything that fits in a car") What else is there in the "someone driving a car" space for them?

What I don't understand is there are really good controls for spend, why on earth didn't they put caps on?

Or ask engineers to justify the spend?

Why should we spend that many tokens, what will that get us in return?

If this was AWS we'd all be pointing and going "Ahhhh you twats, didn't you look at your monthly spend?"

> I'm not a hater; I'm not a luddite. I have a $200 Max plan and I use it.

I'm glad to see we've reached the point of AI discourse at which anything that might be construed as criticism must be prefixed by "I'm also part of the cult, I'm not a non-believer, but" to avoid being dismissed as a heretic.
