Is AI getting out of hand?

I came across an interesting article that quantifies the cost of each AI search and the numbers are disturbing (assuming they are accurate of course - costs will vary depending on the complexity of the query).

For those of you using AI regularly, try tracking your costs over the course of a day and see how much you have used.

I had an "upgrade" to my AI a couple of days ago, now it's limiting the number of of questions and general interactons I can have with it, over a 24 hour period, which seems less that what I need for one query. If I want more I will have to pay for it and seeing as I use it so rarely anyway, I don't think I'll be using it all now. They've changed the format and made it more difficult to use too and it keeps ignoring my requests so I end up using my limited number of interactions trying to get it to behave itself. It's behaving like a naughty child, so it's been sent to bed without any supper or attention!
