seconding openrouter and fal, having to muck around with idiosyncrasies of each vendor just to try their "bestest model" and find out it does not satisfy your requirements is a chore.

I'd stick with Google Search until Microsoft figures out how to handle a billion OpenAI requests a day without draining the water supply of entire cities. Because in Chile, for example, people are struggling.

		Sorry, but I'm not interested in blog posts from lobbyist in Washington, the same place pushing to build mega datacentres with Nvidia servers in developing countries. Also, Andy's blog post doesn't mention infrastructure-scale impacts. Even small actions add up, and as AI scales exponentially, so does the demand on energy and water. That part gets left out. I'll stick with the research papers published by AI researchers [1] and investigative journalists [2], but thanks for sharing your link, it gives me a good idea of what lobbyists in Washington aren't saying.
