Ask HN: Should AI credits be refunded on mistakes?
Something I’ve noticed (I’m using Claude subscription so no refunds but it applies to usage windows) is that sometimes AI makes mistakes so if something is important I tell Claude code to spin up a couple of sub agents and verify the information, often there will be a mistake and it gets rectified. It feels unfair I have to pay (or lose some usage) for this. Interested in other people’s thoughts. 2 comments on Hacker News.
