It never was, but the marketing at the time (and even today) leaves this part out so people buy into it... FUD and FOMO are powerful drugs to the "$C-Suite" when the actual costs are left out or obfuscated...
The promise of cutting headcount for efficiencies with high subsidies of token usage no longer a reality.
@WahlenPMattias True Story.
The reality of Modern Cybersecurity and IT Operations is that you can run almost anything you want in your environment with the proper (and correctly configured) controls, guardrails, and restrictions. The problem is that no one really wants to spend the time, money or staff on doing the latter... they only want to do the former.

@NathanMcNulty @ZackKorman When the joke is no longer the joke and is just truth so absurd it is funny.
This is the sad reality of things. (You know the whole satire has a kernel of truth.. but when the satire is the truth...) The FUD and FOMO marketing has caused this harm.
@ZackKorman CEO: The man named Dario on my really nice TV told me, personally, that AI can replace all my expensive employees and get 24/7/365 output
