That's not really true though, providers are deprecating models and I have at least 10 emails to prove it.

Why? It's not like you can audit weights like you can with code.

> what if they triple the price, nerf it, etc.?

What if an open weights infra provider does that? What's the difference?

> I have no idea why there's loads of residential trawlers/botnets with 10k+ IPs trying to get that data

Probably as simple as the fact that there are unmetered residential proxy plans, which means once you're already paying for one, there's no reason not to use it for everything.

What exactly should be illegal here? Scraping websites? AI agents? Not following robots.txt?

I think they also have to operate in countries that don't mind shady things like this.

They've only been billionaires for a couple years. These things take time.

Is requests the same as queries? Maybe this is an AWS thing and that's why I don't get it.

I have a 80GB database serving 10 queries per second on a $8 VPS. It depends on the query though.

An info badge next to rps would be nice, I'm trying to guess what r is. Rows? Records? Requests?
