It's a chimeric niggershit industry, I've never used it, and all that it produces are profoundly profane works at the expense of the knowledge and output bases it sidesteps moral law on to suck up

I decided I’m going to go nuts on Claude this summer. Just in case there’s some kind of massive pullback it will be advantageous to plow through as much as possible now, both because you will be able to use it more efficiently if you learn it better now, and because it won’t be available to help me cheat/shortcut studying for xyz Security cert or whatever.

There is still massive subsidization occurring but they've made the actual cost per token impossible to measure.

BTW for the English language the average word costs around 1.3 tokens when you factor in misspellings and shit

The costs at a fixed level of intelligence are declining rapidly. Qwen 3.6 is dirt cheap, runs on consumer hardware and is better than a frontier model from a year ago. The costs of frontier models are going up because people want to burn a shitload of tokens with the absolutely best model (which are increasingly large), but whether that makes sense is another matter. In most case for agentic workflows, using a frontier model to generate a plan and have a lower end model follow it makes more sense

How many tokens is a Google search? Maybe just use that instead.
