UnverifiedOpenAI reports that across all attempted problems, 4.9 million messages were sent, approximately 300 billion output tokens were used, token costs alone are estimated at between $15 million and $20 million, the entire proof was completed within 88 hours of the first agents being launched, and formal verification took an additional 17 hours.72% similarUnverifiedIn agentic systems, the total token consumption of a typical agent task after 8 iterations can reach 30,000–50,000 tokens, which is 10–20 times the cost of a single call.71% similarUnverifiedThe entire project consumed 157 million tokens, the majority of which hit the cache, amounting to approximately $223 when calculated at API prices.70% similarUnverifiedIf a single request fills close to one million tokens of input, the input cost alone approaches $3, making cost control for frequent processing of very long contexts a factor that must be weighed during deployment.70% similarUnverifiedEstimated at 70 tokens/second, approximately 252 million tokens can be generated in one hour, translating to an electricity cost of approximately €0.48 per million tokens.70% similar
