Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that he’ll be deeply alarmed if an engineer getting paid $500,000 a year does not consume at $250,000 worth of AI tokens to get their job done.

This is an insane take. No paid internal engineer is blowing their own money on this kind of tooling. Nvidia pays for it.
The same expectations would not be true for employees for normal companies either, instead the goal would be to have 2 FTEs and 1FTE worth of token expenditure, instead of 4+ FTEs. Same cost, “more productivity” (at least that is the argument of the people making money from selling AI hardware.)
