curious if the 1m context window will be default available in claude code. if so, that's a pretty big deal: "Sonnet 4.6’s 1M token context window is enough to hold entire codebases, lengthy contracts, or dozens of research papers in a single request. More importantly, Sonnet 4.6 reasons effectively across all that context."
- pkaye 8mo agoAbove 200k token context they charge a premium. I think its $10/M tokens of input.
- _ink_ 8mo agoInteresting. Is it because they can or is it really more expensive for them to process bigger context?
- cube2222 8mo agoAttention is, at its core, quadratic wrt context length. So I'd believe that to be the case, yeah.
- pkaye 8mo agoI've read that compute costs for LLMs go up O(n^2) with context window size. But I think it is also a combination of limited compute availability, users preference for Anthropic models and Anthropic planning to go IPO.
