Now, some tech job candidates have begun asking about what AI compute budget they will have access to if they decide to join. “I am increasingly asked during candidate interviews how much dedicated inference compute they will have to build with Codex,” Thibault Sottiaux, engineering lead at OpenAI’s Codex, the startup’s AI coding service, wrote on X recently.

Big fucking bullshit. No one ever ask for “AI compute budget”, people wants money. Not your coffee, not your foosball game, money.

Guess what you can buy with money? Yeah, that compute time, if desired.

What a fucking load of bullshit.
