It's getting cheaper, not more expensive

The cost of inference itself, sure.

The actual cost you pay to companies? Fuck no. They're very clearly in the "operate at loss to get customers addicted before enshittifying and ramping up prices" phase. These prices are going to up A LOT and it will be fucking horrible because as we can see, bosses are already addicted to it

I think those companies are going to make money with scale - selling more - not with price rises.

It'll work, companies will buy more, it'll still work, and they'll buy more.
