Funny how it is always more charges but never less or no charges. "Random" accidents that always go against you, too biased to be random. But don't notice that too much, you might start to see patterns here and there that you're not allowed to, might get you banned from places, etc.

I re-read that post/website several times.

Can you cite the portion of it that makes it clear that reduction happened by accident?

I doubt anyone announces when they have under billed. OpenAI has also done many low price deals and quota resets.

But you have eyes, right? And a brain, and live through your own experience and can reason about it, right?

When was the last time someone undercharged you or didn't charge you at all by mistake?

Is this a common occurrence?

What's the proportion of overcharges vs. undercharges you have observed in your life?

Apologies, you asked a question. I assumed that meant you were interested.

You didn't answer my question you literally just asked me another question and then parroted a common talking point about Opus models (which isn't even frontier - Fable is)

Meh. You asked why, I suggested a possible reason, you them said you don't care about why. Congratulations, I now regret engaging.

Sorry I forgot to thank you for just adding more noise

My reply was before your edit to change the posted premise. Good luck with whatever.

You're lying. I never do such thing. You even quoted me and it's the same text.

When I edit comments I append, not overwrite content (unless its typos).

I have to give you credit, this is a new fallacy I haven't encountered before.

> Except leadership doesn't care about dumb bugs. Never has, never will (until it's too late). It cares about velocity and cost. This is the very moment at which I started my own business. I prefer to work for myself with some quality standards than to be in a rush in front of a prompt (not that I do not use AI at all, I do, but not for generating code most of the time). I knew the future, at that time was basically:…

I think being self-employed is the only way you can make sure that your work is allowed to reach your own minimal quality standards.

That is the conclusion I got. And I acted in consequence. The beginnings are pretty hard, but hey, the alternative future looked worse to me.
