Spot pricing sounds like the potential to be able to save a lot of money but also like those savings would just get nommed when it goes up again.
Yep. It is a gamble that might pay off a little, but could lose a lot. With such much fluctuation at the moment, I wasn't willing to risk it.
when I have lately been pointing out in meatspace how people who are scared literally stupid will always make monumentally stupid decisions
It is the "average" person now. The right to be stupid. There will be marches soon against "smart privilege"
Not so much marching but isn't that already happening in schools where things have to be adjusted/changed/something (I'm not quite sure what, I don't use the school system, just hear other parents complaining about it) because it's totally unfair for the average/below students that they're not doing as well as the smart/dedicated ones and the "playing field should be level".
Speaking of levelling playing fields, sibling dearest was telling me about how there are AI directors that are banging on about how they're looking forward to "improving their talents" and how it's great that the technology exists to "take artists down a peg or two" and "level the playing field" (quoted stuff is stuff she was air quoting) and then they're outrage tantrumming about how it's completely unfair that artists are using services like Glaze to poison the datasets.
