All Time Low
AI Token Prices Reach All Time Low
AI token prices have fallen more than 50% since May, now below $1 per million tokens. This drop is primarily due to a shift in usage toward cheaper models, with open models accounting for approximately 60% of mainstream models' traffic at just $0.83 per million tokens. Paid models average $6.03, with competition from companies like $GOOGL, OpenAI, and Anthropic in the high end. The AI economy remains divided between inexpensive intelligence and premium models, maintaining pricing power.
