  2. He notes token totals of 70 million and 25 million for the periods he describes.
  3. Without the model, rates and full context, these figures cannot establish a general cost per task.

Watching usage and cost

Berman reviews token totals and charges and says he needs to monitor costs. The clip ends before further detail.

I'm surprised by the cost when I look at the usage display. I say I paid about $130 yesterday and have already reached $32 today, so I need to be careful about spending.

I mention 70 million tokens for the earlier period and 25 million so far today, by 9:30 in the morning. The clip ends as I start discussing costs; it does not identify the service, model or pricing, so the figures should not be generalized to every AI workload.
