No one paid that amount: it’s the dollar equivalent of the billions of tokens that were used by the LLMs. The “devs” only used a $200/month subscription to do the decompiling. This business model is why AI companies aren’t profitable since compute is wildly more expensive than what they’re charging users.
AI slop ends up costing almost as much as a senior developer if you use tokens/hr as your metric. Except a senior dev is responsible and trains juniors.
For that much you could probably pay a team of coders.

Ah. Hell even for $200 I’m sure you could hire someone freelance though
For an hour maybe. This kind of work takes a lot of talent. Or nowadays… a prompt 🤷♀️
IDK this stuff is only gonna get better. It’s gonna be crazy seeing what code is being put out in a few years by these tools.
