  I know what you’re getting at and this isn’t directed at you and I know this is why it’s done, but the capabilities of the phone don’t have any bearing on the use of the AI so why gatekeep it? It’s a dumb way to make a profit.

    I know. It’s dumb as hell. Just like avarything being priced at 4.99 instead of 5.00. people are just stupid and it seems to wprk out for the companies.

    It’s a dumb way to make a profit.

    If it works, is it dumb?

    When VHS was still around, DVDs were priced higher even though they were much cheaper to produce. If people are willing to pay more, producers/distributors will charge more. Yay capitalism.
