The context from the Business Insider article is that people are using the amount of Claude or codex tokens they get to use on the job as part of the incentives advertised to join a job. Eg you can use Claude as much as you want and don’t have to ration them.
That’s far from being “paid” - it’s just about the quality of tools you get to use on the job.
It's no different from managers negotiating budget for their departments. Software is turning engineers into quasi-managers who manage a fleet of intern-level coding agents. It makes sense that now people want to be guaranteed resources to do their job.
