Right, it's a new technology, its usage is being curated. Even once they release a publicly accessible application, it'll be like going to the hammer renting store, you get to go there and use a hammer, for a fee sometimes, you cant bring the hammer home or own it, they regulate what you can work on with it, it can be overused and inaccessible while demand is high, they can discontinue access when they want.

And they can and do give more access to wealthier clients.

Its a common misconception, prices are never based on cost, its what people are willing to pay. Now, what people are willing to pay can be influenced by perceived costs, but thats pretty artificial too. The prices at a restaurant for example vary pretty wildly in profit margins. Pretty famously, sodas cost cents to make, but people are willing to pay orders of magnitude more.

Id love to hear him scientifically define a loser. Specific metrics with units and shit.

They both always are. Companies make up the prices, and price increases. Predicting how much folks are willing to pay.

All these folks talking in work chats in encryption algorithms and riddles, if only a technology could make these words legible.

they dont even make a case of what benefit this provides besides money for specifically them. Go into a different industry if consumers dont want what you're selling.

Ive never understood the dependence on Amazon. It's not even a monopoly, I've never bought anything online that somewhere else didnt also offer the product, usually an online store specializing in that product.
