Straight Question

A Reddit user questions why major AI companies like Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI offer their advanced AI for $20/month if it's capable of generating billions through inventions, cures, and creating billionaires. The user draws a parallel to YouTube finance broadcasters who promise wealth for a small fee, suggesting that if AI were truly that powerful, these companies would exploit its capabilities themselves rather than selling access cheaply.

This post directly challenges the business model of major AI developers, unlike typical discussions that focus on AI capabilities or ethical concerns.
