I will also tell you, as someone who works at a company that's trying to remain profitable, that token spend has caught the eyes of finance and much like cloud spend they've already started applying pressure to control costs. This May my team is protected to use 30% fewer tokens than we did in April - this was by intention. I suspect we'll drop more in June.

I expect in the future, when these AI companies stop subsidizing costs, the idea of spinning up 20 agents to work on some brain fart idea that you throw out after looking closer will come to an end. It'll be seen like assigning developers on work that hasn't been properly planned for or reviewed.

Can't wait till June, when finance gives the team the choice: everyone gets double tokens if you choose to fire somebody.
