If you pay for an AI tool, read the usage terms because “unlimited” can turn into “whatever we can afford this month.” This is just the first of many “downsizing” moves I expect over the coming months. Running a large public AI (or even a smaller one) remains extremely expensive. While AI companies have high valuations, the money coming in doesn’t really balance the books against the expenditures.
Keep in mind that these companies still must make money to survive, and if that means scaling back AI allotments for end users, that will happen.
My advice is not to put all of your eggs in one basket. Don’t rely on a single AI provider or company. Musk rolling back usage is a quick, easy example.
