Some short-sighted companies are evaluating employees on AI use, with more being better. This script sends tons of requests to one of the main LLMs, allowing you to appear to use AI a ton. It has the side benefit of costing your employer a ton of money.
Another angle: the cost of AI is highly subsidized. Every use costs the AI company considerably more than they’re charging (read Ed Zitron’s commentary on this). Example: A June 2026 SemiAnalysis report shows that a $200/mo Claude subscription can, when maxed out, cost Anthropic $8000/mo in tokens. Therefore, one way to harm AI companies is to max out one’s subscription.
i wonder if thats calculated/priced in the water/electricity usage too, or hazardous pollutants.
Haha i love it.
I was confused because I misread it as a way to get a job. Like it messed up thier
humanAI Resources software.
