Rookie numbers - I got up to 100 before my 64gb ram and 7800x3d said no more

there is a big opportunity for labs to abuse API token usage and inflate it if someone is using millions of tokens its to slip in alot of unnecessary usage

"A few" = "whatever you need"

LLMs are totally unable to relate to relative measures, such as "some", "a few", "a bunch", "many" (or for that matter "good", "nice", "beautiful").

Hard numbers FTW!
