Running (for instance) ChatGPT costs an estimated 10k USD / day. So... there goes your "for free".

With the user base it has, that's...like 1c/day per user?

Firstly, it remains to be seen if said users also generate sufficient revenue and not just cost (although it's likely this will happen). Secondly, even if the technology does scale after a while, there's a barrier of entry (computing power of even a starting size does not pay for itself), so it's not just a matter of "copying a few Terabytes of code" like the initial comment suggested.

Fine...next to free, captain semantics. There are 25 million users a day...costing $0.0004/user......so basically free.
