Maybe that's the plan :)

But on a more serious note, do we know how much Uber spent per technical employee/month? I assume it is far more than even any of those $200 "max ai" plans.

And the other question is how much the public would be willing to spend, in my estimation this is as "cheap" as it will ever get (main-stream at least).

Am in a random small company, colleague spent 100 EUR a day on Sonnet through AWS Bedrock (needed to use a EU region). Paying for tokens will get you in a deep hole financially compared to any of the subscriptions, unless it's like DeepSeek or one of the other models that are priced a bit better, though that's also a tradeoff in what they can/cannot do and also where the data goes. Ended up trying out the Mistral subscription for the US stuff btw, it was fine.

bigCo’s don’t get to do the $200 Max plans, they have unlimited plans but get charged like API
