I think we should charge by the pound. Not because it makes any actual sense, but because it would be hilarious.

Or perhaps higher demand can be a signal to increase supply instead of price gouging. Why incentivize anyone to limit supply?

Sorry, my comment was a joke, I wasn't being serious.

Combine it with AI video recognition. If you walk up calmly its $1, if you're dancing around and crossing your legs it's $5.

Makes sense, they are probably more likely to pay the price. Good for business.
