I remember Techcrunch's founder @arrington once say something like "I hate lists, especially ones I'm not on the top of."

I doubt I'll be on the top of this one. I know quite a few people spending $1,000+ a day in AI token generation.

My budget is way smaller. :-)

Positive users praise the CLI tool's AI usage stats and leaderboards as impressive benchmarks worth trying, while negative users dismiss the focus on token rankings as superficial clout-chasing or just another wrapper.

Neat little tool!

Ran my AI Wrapped, expecting to be humbled. Top 1%. Nice!

I use coding agent all day for everything.

Try it with `npx standout`

@Scobleizer @arrington that's the biggest misconception in AI adoption: thinking more money means better results

@omarsar0 what have you been building with all these tokens?

@Scobleizer @arrington tokenmaxxing is just burning cash for clout. wheres the mechanism to prove demand not just usage

@Scobleizer @arrington The future is 0 companies, 0 employees, 0 tokens (just kidding, my multimodal agent burns tokens like hell).

@omarsar0 Another wrapper for npx, seen it all before.

@Scobleizer @arrington the arrington quote is gold though. definitely stealing that energy for my own mediocre stats.

@omarsar0 6.4B tokens. Impressive. But tokens burned ≠ problems solved. What shipped?

@omarsar0 Probably means you're past the autocomplete mindset. Most engineers who say they use coding agents are still prompt-and-pray, not actually delegating the loop.

@omarsar0 Top 1% is impressive! That’s some serious AI usage. Definitely going to run npx standout and see where I land on the leaderboard.

@Scobleizer @arrington That $1k/day token burn is wild; staying scrappy probably forces better evals and fewer vanity runs

@cosimo_dauve mostly research agents and ai-powered apps
