No one cares about the aggregated sum you spent, and something tells me that instead of directly saying how much the average user was paid, the PR team chose to divulge the total amount because it sounds better (someone must have pat themselves on the back when they phrased it as "we paid users $300K").

the money came directly from AI Labs paying for it. not venture or anything else.

That isn’t the issue. If you paid $300,000 to 300,000 users, each user made a dollar.
