- zero_shift 8mo agoThose are very large reductions - can I ask you for a source? And why is the error bar so large?

- orwin 8mo agoThat doesn't matter if the free models are as performant in 6 months. I will never personally pay for a model I can have for free. ChatGPT 5 used to be my preferred model as a DMing help tool, now deepseek and LeChat are the one I use, and are better at what OpenAI model use to be better at. And I think the models hit their limit for my usecase, I don't need better one. I never 'reprompt' anymore, and just roll/improvise with what I got.
- simianwords 8mo agoi find it interesting that in no case do you allow openapi to profit - if the costs go up then they can't make profits - if the costs go down then you won't pay for them
- orwin 8mo agoIt's hard to sell something I can have for free. The only way for openAI to get my subscription back would be my country making open-weight ai or deepseek illegal. It was worth the price tbh, but they can't compete with free.
