Apple quietly lowered the daily spending cap for some engineers using AI models to $200 from $300

$200 a day for an individual person? WTF?

    So it almost doubles the cost of a worker and at best increases their productivity by 30% at the cost of longer working hours.

    WTF indeed, who looked at this and thought this was a good idea!?
