> "Provide your AI API access key" will probably be coming to a lot of services/apps that we want 'our' AI's to interact with.

Considering provide your own API key is banned by a number of larger players (Reddit, Google Maps) to stop large numbers of users cashing in on the free/cheap low usage tiers I'd expect AI vendors would enforce the same rules soon once all this free VC hype funding dries up.

It's in their TOS. Trivial to ban you when they see thousands of different keys coming from a single IP.

not sure what CORS rule they have but in edge apps most likely your users will run AI API directly from their devices so not like their key will be used more than on few edge devices they have.
