UnverifiedThe token consumption of a single image request to GPT-4V is often several to tens of times that of a plain-text request, and costs accumulate rapidly in high-frequency loop operations.79% similarUnverifiedFor a GPT-4-level model, generating a narrative of several hundred words may incur API call costs of a few cents.77% similarUnverifiedA GPT-4-level model might consume several dollars of compute for a single complex coding task.74% similarUnverifiedFor models billed per token such as GPT-4o, the cost of an uncompressed long-task conversational context can be 5–10 times that of a compressed one.72% similarUnverifiedGPT Image 1.5 offers an API for developers, with image input and output costs cheaper than before.72% similar
