[ SLANG ][ AI CULTURE ][ DEGEN ECONOMY ]
The highest-tier, most expensive subscription option for an AI tool, purchased specifically to avoid rate limits and usage caps rather than for any feature exclusive to that tier.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Upgraded to the max plan just so I'd stop thinking about the usage cap."
LORE & ORIGIN
Product-naming convention (many AI companies literally call their top tier 'Max') that became community shorthand for the plan power users default to once lower tiers prove limiting.
