    Short answer. No. Each AI service limits the number of free tokens you can use within a certain time frame.

    This means we could all do it but we’d be making like 5 requests per hour or 20 requests per day. It’s not nothing (because they don’t have enough paying users to subsidize the free users, and each free query costs them money), but in a cost to benefit analysis it’s probably better to just avoid all AI as best you can.

    Now, if you work for a company and they give you access to a paid tier? Use it for everything. Make AI launch your email app and calendar every morning. Tell it to order you coffee. Ask it questions morning, noon, and night. Burn those tokens. Make it hurt for the company to keep paying that subscription.

        I agree. I wanted to just see if a script could do this. Leave it running on an old computer I can factory reset. But the more I looked into it, the more I realized it wouldn’t do what I wanted without millions of people doing it.
