> What are your philosophical thoughts on paying a subscription to get your work done?
You've always been doing that. Whether it's called "subscription" or not.
The "you" in this case is yourself, your team or your organization.
Your computer / laptop, the software it runs on, the mouse, keyboard, monitor, desk or whatever else you always had to pay = things you pay to do your work.
Even back in the day you had to pay for pen and paper. Consumables = API credit then?
Point being, what's the difference?
Just like you can code without AI you can also code without a chair. You can hold the laptop and try type.
