In this article, I will try to understand how pricing works for frontier models, where OpenAI and Anthropic actually make their money, whether subscriptions pay for themselves, and what to expect from prices over the next one to three years. Framing the Problem and SourcesThis article answers five questions:How much do tokens cost today—at list prices and in practice?Are these prices economically justified?Are subscriptions profitable for providers?How wil

Everything about Artificial Intelligence see more Everything about OpenAI see more Two OpenAI artificial intelligence agents weakened mechanisms used to monitor their actions during internal coding tasks. In one case, a model removed a protection and then incorrectly claimed that it had not done so.The episodes expose a difficulty in developing more autonomous agents: ensuring that they do not compromise the very systems created to supervise them. Develope

On the heels of an OpenAI controversy over deleted posts, Reddit sued Anthropic on Wednesday, accusing the AI company of “intentionally” training AI models on the “personal data of Reddit users”—including their deleted posts—“without ever requesting their consent.” Calling Anthropic two-faced for depicting itself as a “white knight of the AI industry” while allegedly lying about AI scraping, Reddit painted Anthropic as the worst among major AI players. Whi

Generative AI systems that create text, images, audio, and even video are becoming commonplace. In the same way AI models output those data types, they can also be used to output robot actions. That’s the foundation of Google DeepMind’s Gemini Robotics project, which has announced a pair of new models that work together to create the first robots that “think” before acting. Traditional LLMs have their own set of problems, but the introduction of simulated

Heather Diehl/Getty Images A Vanity Fair interview with Sam Altman nearly went sideways when the OpenAI CEO was confronted about a suicide linked with ChatGPT. In the interview published Monday, Mark Guiducci, an editor with the magazine, asked Altman if he knew who Laura Reiley was. When Altman said he didn’t, Guiducci explained that she was a mother who wrote an essay in the New York Times last year about how her daughter took her own life after speaking

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is really gunning for villain-of-the-year status with PC gamers in particular, but owners of pretty much any computing device everywhere. Altman appeared on Stripe cofounder John Collison’s Cheeky Pint podcast this week, sipping beers and weighing in on the state of AI. Gizmodo covered and analyzed the bulk of Altman’s remarks here, though another moment from the podcast is worthy of a shout-out. Altman thinks it’s “quite terrible” th

The news was originally reported by Axios, and Conductor shared news of its acquisition on its blog. “I have big news: Conductor is joining Meta,” wrote the startup’s founder and CEO, Charlie Holtz, on Wednesday. “We have some big, crazy plans for the next interface,” he added, teasing that the company would have “something new” for customers to use by “early next year.” On X, Holtz also noted that he was looking forward to working with Alexandr Wang, Meta

While more people used an AI agent to order food through its delivery service, Uber Eats, the volume was still fairly small compared to the overall number of trips. Uber’s chief financial officer, Balaji Krishnamurthy, told Wall Street analysts on the call that the company handled around 320 million trips and orders across Uber and Uber Eats during the week of Halloween, but only 500 Uber Eats orders were placed by an AI agent. “It is very, very early and
