I would not be surprised if they have engineers vibecoding 2-3 projects each simultaneously, nonstop, on largely un-moderated review-suggest-iterate-test feedback loops.

All the code gets summarized and fed into their manager's agent contexts, probably duplicated several times across levels and departments, with some generated back-and-forth emails pinging around the org chart, eventually generating 2-3 long-winded reports that nobody will read chock full of generated visualizations that can all get consolidated into a generated slide deck that they'll show (maybe, at some point) to a handful of humans with more money than a human brain can conceptualize to demonstrate all of the innovation they're doing.

I am increasingly convinced that many of these companies are dead trees whose only function is to burn money lest it fall into the hands of the peasantry.

You are paying account pricing. Uber is paying API pricing.

You're $100/m plan is likely equivalent to thousands of dollars of API pricing. You are being subsidized by the companies using AI.

I wasn't aware the Max $100/user plan wasn't available to Enterprise; it used to be IIRC

just don't care about the output. Produce more. Don't check the results.
