Interesting that Google used the same pricing multiple for Gemini Pro 1.5 vs the new Gemini Flash - Flash is exactly 1/10th the price of Pro: https://ai.google.dev/pricing

squeezing model sizes down is just as important as scaling up in my opinion, and 1.5 Flash ⚡️ is so incredibly capable while so small and cheap it's been blowing our minds 🤯 it has been an incredible privilege and so much fun building this model (sometimes too much fun)! ⚡️

Gemini 1.5 Pro is $3.50 up to 128k tokens, $7 after Gemini 1.5 Flash is $0.35 up to 128k tokens (and presumably double after?) Assuming the last is true, this is the cheapest 1M token model out there. Game changer [image]

Why isn't @Google talking about the cost of these models? I think that @OpenAI did a much better job of communicating those improvements.
