> For equal capability tokens, there has been about a 10x drop in cost every 6 months
Is this still happening? Opus 4.5 was six months ago, can you get its capabilities for 1/10 cost now? Are we on track to get the same for 4.6 in a couple months?
Pretty much, Kimi K2.6 is opus 4.6 quality for coding. If you include discounts due to more efficient input caching it is around 1/10th of opus4.6.

The march of cost efficiency moves on.
