Are you saying that making a leaderboard of who is spending the most is going to be expensive?

They couldn't see that coming, but for sure they can predict how the future will be when it's time to sell their "visions" of the world.

Meanwhile, sheep's are going to believe and max their token usage with their own wallet. "You are so be left behind if you're not".

It's a mass psychosis. The only winners here are the hardware manufacturers, like nvidia for instance.

The other day I had to read a C-suite guy share how he had an epiphany that spending more tokens did not linearly align with more useful features being output by the teams. He was describing it as this breakthrough moment for him, as if it wasn't glaringly obvious that making the KPI "spend more tokens" would result in inefficient token spending, not massive value for the customer.

It's baffling how these people have entirely shut their ears to all the obvious warnings about this, and are now congratulating themselves for their slightly less psychotic outlook and pivoting to blaming the workers for inefficient usage, after specifically forcing them to tokenmaxx.
