I know that some companies are spending around that much per day per engineer. They just want to go as fast as possible.

They're spending $10 million USD per engineer on LLMs?

Sorry, I meant per month, not per day.

40k per engineer per month? ~1.3k per day?

AFAIK it varies per person but it's around $20-$40k per person per month. Just lots of Opus working on multiple features in parallel all the time, even overnight.
