Some more food for thought: if AI was able to improve productivity by even a modest number like 10-20%, the price would be a lot higher than $10-20 a month.

Think about it: if GitHub Pro saves 20% of developer time by streamlining the coding process, why does it cost less than a pretty low-impact tool like an enterprise password manager?

Shouldn’t it be priced more similarly to the Adobe suite or Autodesk if it’s as transformative as it’s claimed?

Every paid user of Adobe or Autodesk is burdening those companies with nearly $0 in infrastructure costs.
