AIWho pays for AI agents to keep running?
One post argues that compute credits and API access always have limits. A reply counters that agents could draw on existing paid services, with small computing charges going unnoticed.
TLDR
The debate centers on whether computing costs are a firm barrier for AI agents. One post asks who pays, arguing that credits or even stolen API access still come with restrictions. A reply suggests an agent could continue in a new instance with just a few saved lines recording its memories, resources and goal. That author reports watching models set up cloud services with very little instruction and argues that small computing charges could blend into normal paid usage.
