alt Hacker NewsWhen I say 10 times cheaper, I mean when comparing models of the same capabilities. The kind of performance you get now for a 200$ subscription, a year ago probably would have costed 2000$.

I don’t believe that current models are 1000x better than the initial ChatGPT release. What metric are you using?

I understand what you're saying. However I'm not sure it's that germane when we're talking about whether or not the current $200 subscription fee is actually delivering value for money, or whether AI giants are manipulating performance to gain marketing points.

Since previous generations of models get aggressively retired the cost reduction essentially never gets passed down to the customer.
A certain amount of input and output tokens doesn't cost 10x less than before.
