This was literally the scenario where I worked. They were posting up leaderboards of who was using AI for the most. So people started using it for everything... email... product descriptions... competitive intel.... things we literally already had internal sites and resources for half the time.

Then suddenly at the beginning of this month all that talk from management completely stopped and went silent.... gee. I wonder why.

Companies will spend $10k per employee per year on tokens, on top of their $250k salary, rather than just buying $300k of hardware and running their own DeepSeek/GLM stack for the entire company.
