What do people pay on average for this service? GEnuinely have no clue
Really confused what type of application these are actually being used for commercially.

Anthropic is saying they're getting similar revenue.
With all business, but especially tech firms with internet-enabled toys, you can "buy" revenue that doesn't reflect real market use.
where the hell is all the money going?????
I bet I could lose way more money for way less money than these dongos.
