- This CEO was out to dinner when he caught his AI agent wasting $1,000 in tokens. He says ‘insecurity’ is a bigger problem
Branden Jenkins, CEO of Maxio, was surprised when his weekend AI coding session resulted in a $1,000 token charge. He states that while this highlights how quickly 'agentic' tools can consume money, the deeper problem is employee insecurity about technology and being outpaced by AI. Jenkins finds that much of the financial waste stems from model selection or conversational drift.
