Funny how it is always more charges but never less or no charges.

"Random" accidents that always go against you, too biased to be random.

But don't notice that too much, you might start to see patterns here and there that you're not allowed to, might get you banned from places, etc.

Quota resets are so frequent they don't make the news anymore.

I re-read that post/website several times.

Can you cite the portion of it that makes it clear that reduction happened by accident?

My reply was before your edit to change the posted premise. Good luck with whatever.

You're lying. I never do such thing. You even quoted me and it's the same text.

When I edit comments I append, not overwrite content (unless its typos).

I have to give you credit, this is a new fallacy I haven't encountered before.

This can be a reporting bias. Noone opens an issue when they were billed too low.

Applying Occam’s razor, which do you think is more likely:

1. OpenAI intentionally adds random overcharges. 2. OpenAI deprioritizes fixing actual bugs that cause occasional overcharges because doing so won’t affect their bottom line.

I doubt anyone announces when they have under billed. OpenAI has also done many low price deals and quota resets.

Usually it's user's incentive to control over-billing and company's one to make sure there's no under-billing :)

But you have eyes, right? And a brain, and live through your own experience and can reason about it, right?

When was the last time someone undercharged you or didn't charge you at all by mistake?

Is this a common occurrence?

What's the proportion of overcharges vs. undercharges you have observed in your life?
