But we need to keep prompting at the Anthropic casino! There is a token slot machine called "Jevons paradox" that promises as the cost of your tokens get much cheaper, you be more productive in gambling even more tokens! /s

Except what Uber is experiencing is that the tokens are not getting cheaper and the employees are gambling even more tokens and using up the budget; racking up expensive bills for Uber. So they are blowing through their budget.

It is at least cheaper to gamble your tokens with DeepSeek's or Xiaomi's casinos and they have just announced a permanent 99% off deal with an allocation of 100 trillion tokens! [0]

That is a great deal, with a small catch. (If you are fine with sending your data and prompts to them)
