TechCrunch reports that Y Combinator's Garry Tan spends up to $200K a year on tokens for his AI agents.
Tan jokingly admitted he has suffered from "cyber psychosis" and sometimes barely sleeps because he is so excited to work with his AI agents. He put a price tag on the habit on a new episode of Walter Isaacson's podcast, The Builders.
