That's a problem that already exists in power generation and delivery, and it's already been solved. Bills are sums of fixed terms and variable terms.

- Yokohiii 7mo agoCustom payment schemes are late stage profit generation. It requires hoards of salespeople or an AI that can actually do math. It's just how hyperscaling works. You are not wrong, but in the wrong timeline.
- fluoridation 7mo agoI'm not talking about custom, negotiated service contracts, I'm talking about simply charging people for what they use.

So if they would charge for real use, no one would use it as there are competitors who have less harsh limits with tier plans still. If all go away then I will be running open models on vast.ai or so as those are now viable (been testing with glm 5 and it's great for coding). So tier subscriptions cannot go away as it will end those companies fast.
