2026-05-18 / TOOLSPattern: Enterprise AI Cost Explosion — Uber's Budget Burn Signals Industry-Wide Scaling ProblemUber's full-year AI coding budget exhausted by April is not an isolated incident — it's the canary for every enterprise adopting AI coding tools. The math: 84% developer adoption × $500-$2K/month/engineer × thousands of engineers = costs that outpace any productivity ROI model built on 2024 assumptions.
