Ah, pretty clear now.
I am sincerely curious as to how this engagement farming shit comes to exist these prices are from V4-preview launch, April, sliced 4x since then. Opus 4.6 is half a year old. But V4 Pro (official version) news are ≈1 month old. So what Indian bot magic is this?
🚨 deepseek v4 official launch soon not a new model - the graduation from preview to GA > v4 pro scores 80.6% on SWE-bench, near opus 4.6's 80.8% > output pricing: $3.48/M vs opus 4.6's $25/M - a 7.2x gap > 1M context window, matching opus 4.6 > peak-hour pricing added - 2x cost during beijing business hours > legacy aliases retire july 24 near-frontier performance at 1/7th the cost why is anyone still paying $25/M for output tokens?
