95 input, 16,658 output = 25 cents! https://www.llm-prices.com/#it=95&ot=16658&ic=3&oc=15 (13,241 of those were reasoning tokens.)
I think that's the most expensive pelican I've rendered through a Chinese model so far.

How did "Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle" turn into 95 tokens?
The most whimsical benchmaxxing target :)
It got the 3D effect of leg behind the bar at least which is impressive
I rarely see gears in these bicycles. Is the idea that should a pelican need to go uphill it could just fly.
Oof, front fork is wrecked. Pelican should be wearing a helmet on that death trap.
It is a nice pelican, though. At least it has that going for it.
I wouldn't be surprised if models were optimizing for rendering SVG pelicans at this point
