"We forced all the employees into AI, and now apparently, our internal AI usage is high; this means this project will get high usage from general consumers."

When your dogfood is really an opiate, you might have a problem.

It‘s not an opiate, it‘s salvia divinorum or rather something even more awful like diphenhydramin.

Psychonaut wiki:

Notably, it is frequently reported to produce significant nausea and bodily discomfort ("body load"). Most people who try diphenhydramine do not report positive effects and do not wish to repeat the experience.

It is generally considered to have low abuse potential due to its dysphoric effects.
