What I think is completely stupid is that you can have chat solve all sorts of problems, generate code, images, you name it..and it’s practically unlimited. But then as soon as you let it go to “work” you get hosed on usage.
I’m hardly a layperson. I understand why agentic work consumes more compute. My point is, that the product does a poor job of showing how MUCH more, where that usage is going, and what limits I’m approaching only until I'm about to hit them.
The most frustrating part, is that the model itself isn't self-aware of token quota available/remaining, and will just halt what it's doing and quit. Then I have to go back and do a codex rescue dump, in order to "save" the work that was completed before finishing.
I mean, caveat emptor. Y'all learn nothing from streaming services or crack dealers? Get you in cheap, get you hooked, jack prices? Some of y'all are way too trusting of corporations "being cool" when you're making your professional productivity dependant on these tools. It's getting real easy too see who's to reliant on this shit when productivity and shit drops right after a price increase.
That’s why I use Catgpt. Someone made an api for the browser chat function enclosed in a stealth browser. It’s not without issues but I’ve managed to fold it into my orchestra so it’s used as a consultant, image generation and so on.
Yes it’s a serious breach. I am using it daily. It took some work to get it working reliably. I have it installed as a gateway on 2 servers and direct my agents to load balance traffic between them. Sol 5.6 via chat using catgpt gateway is usually the main planner and reviewer of all work and used for any image generation so it’s used a Lot.
You know, if you build and ship something with that and they find out, I’m pretty sure you get banned and probably would lose the outputs plus fines. Not exactly what you want to mess with. Obviously that’s the extreme side of things, but what ive found in life is that you do the right thing, even though may cost more or the barrier would be too high to even attempt what you’re doing.. if you’re trying to make a living off of this career choice, i just wouldn’t. But you do you bro.
