Why does everything AI-related have to be $20? Why can't there be tiers? OpenAI setting the standard of $20/m for every AI application is one of the worst things to ever happen.
- thimabi 1y agoMy guess is that’s the lowest price point that provides a modicum of profitability — LLMs are quite expensive to run, and even more so for providers like Ollama, which are entering the market and don’t have idle capacity.

- joecot 1y agoI strongly recommend together.ai, which allows you to use a lot of different open source models and charges for usage, not a monthly fee.
- paxys 1y agohttps://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing/ https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing/ - $0 / $20 / $200 / $25 (team) / custom enterprise pricing / on-demand API pricing https://www.anthropic.com/pricing https://www.anthropic.com/pricing - $0 / $17 (if billed annually) / $20 (if billed monthly) / $100 / $25 (team) / custom enterprise pricing / on-demand API pricing Sounds like tiers to me.
- polarbear67 1y agoI should have specified less expensive tiers (below the $20 standard). A tier <= $10 would be great. Anything over $10 for casual use seems excessive (or at least from my perspective)
