Ask HN: 一年后，LLM API 的费用会变得微不足道吗？
1 分•作者: changisaac•9 个月前
大家好，我是 HN 用户。我们正在初创公司里控制成本，目前最大的开销是调用 Anthropic、OpenAI 等公司的 API。我们考虑过自己搭建开源模型，但考虑到我们还没有实现产品市场契合度（PMF），觉得不值得。<p>乐观地看，过去几年里，LLM 的 token 价格一直在大幅下降。你们认为，如果这种趋势持续下去，这笔开销最终会变得微不足道吗？还是说，我们会永远被这些基础模型公司“宰”？就像云计算的发展历程一样（AWS、GCP 等）。

Hi HN. We’re managing costs at my startup and by far our largest spend is on calls to Anthropic, OpenAI, etc. We’ve considered things like spinning up our own open source model but decided it’s not worth it considering we don’t even have PMF yet.<p>Optimistically though, I see that token prices to LLMs have been going down a lot in the past few years. Do you think if this continues that it’ll eventually become a negligible expense? Or do you think we will forever be gouged by these foundation model companies? (: Much like how cloud computing has went (AWS, GCP, etc.)
