I cannot fathom being in a position of such privilege that this looks like "losing". I wish I could lose like this. I think most people would be extremely happy to be losers, if this is how we're defining the word.

> I wish I could lose like this.

You can.

1. Borrow 10x your annual income.

2. Spend 3x your monthly income, every month.

I’m paying $100 per month for codex, idk if that’s them “losing”….? Although idk about big enterprise cos keeping their unlimited token/tokenmaxxin usage though API req

You forgot the other half of the equation aka how much it costs _them_ for you to use codex. (newsflash, it's likely more than 100$)

This is a huge topic, but I think it's still too early to conclude that the AI industry is losing.

To me, this looks more like an iterative technology cycle. The frontier labs continue to improve the models, while the agents, tooling, infrastructure, and applications is evolving rapidly. So, as long as the feedback loop between model improvements and real-world adoption continues, short-term losses don't necessarily tell us much about the long-term trajectory.

If you do that as an individual you are going to prison though.
