Chris Maconi(@chrismaconi):Given how token hungry Grok Bot is, and that all my tokens for the week are gone, I dialed things way back for the day. It still ended up using close to $100 for the day. Hoping that we end up getting more tokens included in our subs somehow, cause that means if I used GB the way I had been using it before running out of plan tokens, I’m sure I would have hit $200 in usage, and that’s with all dev tasks going to Cursor or Claude Code. I can see why open is so appealing for these types of agent systems. They absolutely burn tokens.
