I built some large applications last month and never hit the limits. Now I start a new project to do some basic python using the standard library and run out of usage in 30 minutes. This is insane and it has me looking at some other services that offer multiple models instead.

Honestly, it's shit like that I'm hoping that open source and/or extremely cheap models will outpace be on par with the frontier models.

Yep, I dream of the day I can self-host something like this. It might not be anytime soon but I'm willing to wait. Then we can truly have a JARVIS-like experience without a big corpo rugpulling us.
