With the assistant API, am I wrong or is it now much cheaper to actually use the API instead of the web Interface? $20 would cover a lot of interactions with the API, and since it’s now also doing truncation / history augmentation the API would have pretty much the same functionality. Thoughts?
- lucubratory 3y agoYou would have to build the UI probably a pre-prompt yourself, but yeah it should be fine if the math does work out. I'm not sure it will though, because if it did any company on the planet could launch a thin wrapper around the API, charge less than OpenAI does ChatGPT+, and undercut them that way.
- flaviolivolsi 3y agoDepends on how much you use it, but yes. I personally use TypingMind with the APIs
- stavros 3y agoWasn't it always? I've been using a desktop app that talks to the API to access GPT-4, and I've been paying a dollar or two per month.
