Each inference by a large model consumes compute, long conversations accumulate context, and cost rises with the number of turns and text length; additional features such as web search and file parsing also incur extra overhead.

UnverifiedWhen large models can instantly generate explanations, solve problems and summarize, purely content-based products will rapidly converge, with prices driven down to marginal cost.78% similarUnverifiedDue to limited capacity, small models produce lengthy reasoning text lacking effective guidance in multimodal search tasks, increasing reasoning cost without necessarily improving results.78% similarUnverifiedBecause every conversation turn re-reads all prior content, the longer a session runs, the more expensive each new message becomes—costs accumulate with session length rather than instruction length.78% similar
