Y Combinator CEO has a message for all the founders and CEOs worried about burning too many AI tokens
Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan has a message for founders and CEOs concerned about the cost of using large numbers of AI tokens: “Burn, baby, burn.” Speaking on an episode of the A16z podcast this week, Tan argued that founders should spend heavily on AI agents, even when doing so can result in high annual costs.
Tan said founders should give themselves permission to use large token budgets when working with AI agents, arguing that doing so can provide access to a level of AI capability that he believes will otherwise become available only in the future.
