> If your company said "We're not paying for LLMs anymore.", would you begrudgingly pay for or host your own LLM that complies with company policies, or just go back to writing everything by hand?

I already write code myself, so perhaps I'm not your target audience. But I strongly believe that anyone who pays for his own LLM is being a fool. You should never pay for tools for work. If you do so, you're letting them take advantage of you rather than paying the needs of their own business. It's a bad deal, don't go down that road.

But you don’t need an LLM.
