On day one of the AI Engineer conference in NYC, Devin set up a 'Token Billionaire Lounge,' framing AI's new luxury class as billionaires measured in tokens rather than dollars. Attendees who burn billions of tokens get haircuts, facials, massages, bespoke tailoring and vinyl sessions. The poster says NYC tech events are going all out, with thanks to mattbergland, swyx and others.
