Apparently, you buy some currency called AI Units and this is the rate the different LLMs consume them. The multipliers used to represent requests I think, i.e. times you triggered inference, but ai units are a proxy for token burn in a somewhat vague way, which makes me think there will be rate limit related controversies similar to what’s now happening with anthropic. Existing enterprise user get double the AIUs for three months to ease them to the new model, so autumn’s gonna be fun.

    This gives me very high live service video game monetization feelings, another reason to stay far away from it. At least they don’t have the thing where every times costs multiples of 50 and you buy tokens amounts not divisible by 50.
