the bottom line is that a.i is getting more and more expensive and they have excuses for that. just last week trae.ai reduced its plan credits from 400$ to 100$

Inference for the same level of intelligence is getting cheaper. Frontier intelligence keeps finding ways to get more expensive, yes.

But gpt-6-sol, for instance, dropped price for the same level of intelligence. That will keep happening, and someday we'll have basically-free sol. And hopefully by then, very cheap astra.

But some new wild thing will be very expensive.

I'm sure I'll figure out how to use the new one, but I would be extremely happy with near-free Astra.

Claude subs are great value again ever since Astra release moved lots of people to OpenAI subs. Even moreso since Opus 5.5 release.
