Apart from the fact that there's no way in hell I'd want a hallucinating LLM with privacy and security issues to see my health and banking data, I can't quite get my head around the concept that there are users who willingly pay this much for access to it...
See, if you lay off all your staff, it pales in comparison to their silly wages.
If you're paying $200+ a month for a tool that doesn't work then i'm sorry but you deserve to potentially have your bank account wiped out by it.
That's the best part, Palantir has already sold your health and banking data to ChatGPT.
I mean you'd use the 200 dollar tier if you keep running into usage limits because of Codex or something. There's really no other reason for it IMHO.
At that point why not just run the model locally? 4 months of subscription would pay for a powerful enough setup.
