        You burn 16 tokens and what do you get?

        Another day older and deeper in debt.

          With Levels.fyi pegging the 75th percentile software engineer salary at $375,000, Tunguz estimates that adding $100,000 in annual inference costs brings the fully loaded cost to $475,000 — meaning just over 20% of the compensation cost could come from AI usage in the future.

          and later

          Tunguz has been building AI tools and models into his daily workflow and is automating 31 tasks a day at a cost of about $12,000 a year in inference.

          This article is insane and proves me more that AI is product for rich people. Most of developers won't see $100k per year paycheck in their lifetime.

              These days an annual salary of $100k is at the very low end for most IT jobs in the USA (beyond the junior level). Even in my MCOL area $125k-$200k is more common.
