The price that stood out
- The author highlights pricing at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens.
- They say this is cheaper than Fable 5, Opus 4.8, and GPT-5.6 Sol.
Why it matters
- The thread argues that a model being this competitive at this price is more important than a single leaderboard placement.
- In other words, the pricing could be the part that changes adoption behavior, not just benchmark discussion.
