    I still see that nvidia "engineers should spend half their worth / 250k in tokens" thing going around, and I don't get it, also why people are even giving this

    A user on Mastodon expressed confusion and skepticism regarding Nvidia's suggestion that engineers should spend half their worth, or 250,000 tokens, on AI development. The user criticized this metric as "tokenmaxxing," comparing it unfavorably to "line of code maxxing" and arguing that focusing on resource usage and output numbers is a poor key performance indicator for product development. The post questions the motivations behind such metrics, implying they are not aligned with creating good products. AI
