Big fucking bullshit. No one ever ask for "AI compute budget", people wants money. Not your coffee, not your foosball game, money.
Guess what you can buy with money? Yeah, that compute time, if desired.
What a fucking load of bullshit.
Don't pay people enough money, expect them to buy your products with their non existent money.
They are talking about like internal quotas I believe? Like my friends company is limited to 1000 in spend per month while I have no cap and will blow through 2k in a week if I’m working long hours.
