Does anyone know why o1-pro is more expensive than o3-pro?


That’s been the case for a lot of the models. As they release new models those models often include optimizations that bring runtime costs down. I don’t have the data to back it up but it’s felt like chip cycles. There is a new model that is better but more expensive. Then further iterations on that model being costs down.
