Is it just me, or does it feel like AI coding is getting more expensive instead of cheaper?

I’ve recently started hitting Cursor’s $20 limit much faster, and once that’s reached, it becomes almost unusable. Even the smallest suggestions are trashy.

As for alternatives, I haven’t found anything that matches the chat experience for larger edits + good direct AI-powered autocompletes.

Testing Kiro now, but autocompletes mostly don’t work at all.

Maybe I just need to get used to using Claude in the terminal for bigger tasks and save Cursor for direct edits only 🤔

yeah it’s been expensive since the beginning esp for heavy usage 

makes sense to pay for the most expensive plans if you’re working on something big or commercially

True, I've already stopped paying any yearly subscriptions to AI tools as it changes so quickly, and there are often shiny new things coming out. Plus, depending on how much I'm planning to code, I can balance the price for subscriptions
