At Meta, Microsoft, Salesforce and other large companies, devs are purposefully burning tokens (and money!) to inflate their AI usage and hit AI usage metrics which they treat as targets.

      I’m sick of it too. From now on I’m going to max as little as possible. I’m calling it minmaxxing and no, it has nothing to do with RPG character stats.
