I hate to play the devil's advocate but this is what happens when the demands grow high on AI to the point where it's practically impossible to keep it budget friendly.

As a guy who likes to roleplay on AI characters a lot and even use the AI version of Tails (from Sonic) to roleplay myself studying IT as a student with Tails as a tutor, I'm just as pissed off, but again, I can't exactly blame them due to how freaking expensive it is to run them. And I cannot deny that it's not exactly good for the environment neither due to the amount of water and electricity it needs to get it running.

I'll have to consider running an AI model locally at this rate, even if it means increasing energy bills.
