Ever since LLMs where provided free to the public, I've been pen testing them. Not intentionally, I just like tech and have wanted to explore them. After getting all the info they're designed not to provide(which is so fucking easy, even on the most recent models that have corporate PC baked in to the core can't do shit) I turned to token burning. I could easily get 1M/24hr, but they've brought that cost down to like $0.10 so its not doing much anymore. I think I saw a model specific script that's doing 52k/min.

Point is it takes a day of coding and a shit PC to just sit there burning money directly out of their budget. It wouldnt take that many people committed to doing this to make AI less feasible.
