It might meaningfully change the business model of LLM businesses. Becomes seemingly much harder to universally charge $30/mo subscriptions when the user is bringing their own API key.
Right. IIRC, the acquiring bank would send an authorisation advice to the issuer when it comes back online. An auth advice is like notice that a payment happened, the issuer doesn’t really get a say in rejecting it (as it does for an authorisation). For the most part, anyway.
If that transaction brings the customer into a negative balance, it’d be between the bank and customer to figure that out. Especially if the customer has no overdraft facility and isn’t supposed to be able to go negative, and isn’t able to easily recover the payment, or the customer is considered vulnerable, then the bank will often just swallow the loss.
I’d agree. The biggest exception I can think of is X, which post-Musk has plans to reduce/remove ads. Though I don’t know how much this tanked their ad revenue and whether it was worth it.
or not like the recent FB AR glasses. if your live demo doesn't work in rehearsal, there's a good chance it's not going to work during the actual presentation. there's a reason the phrase "demo hell" is well understood.
But the problem is that the product is buggy. The question then is "can you fix those bugs before products ship."
I'm not sure what the problem is here. Customers don't want buggy products. Live demos are more informative to users who can't tell what the actual experience will be like vs what the envisioned experience is.
I'm sorry, but as a customer I don't care what's in a developer's dreams, I care what I can buy.
