Claude Haiku 5.5
As previously promised, here's Anthropic's new fast, low cost model: Introducing Claude Haiku 5.5. The previous Haiku, 4.5, was very much showing its age. It came out almost a year ago, and was priced at $1/million input and $5/million output - relatively exp…

Introducing Gemini 3.7 Flash
Gemini 3.7 Flash arrives three weeks after 3.6 Flash with across-the-board gains in coding, web development and document-heavy knowledge work, at an introductory price of half the previous cost per million tokens.
一次 180 万美元的智能体账单：超预算 860%，五个月后才被发现
亚马逊用 Claude Sonnet 给自家网站填充作者信息，花掉 180 万美元、超预算 860%、五个月后才被发现，而且最终没有部署成功。同期 Meta 员工 30 天消耗 73.7 万亿 token，Uber 四个月烧完全年编码预算。一项调查显示只有 26% 的企业对自身 AI 成本具备全面可见性。这不是一条价格新闻——它是「智能体安静地做错事」这个失败模式的又一种形态：不报错，只出账单。
Copilot vs. raw API access: What are you actually paying for?
GitHub argues the choice between Copilot and raw model API access comes down to which layer of the system you need to own: the model call, or the workflow, policy, and harness around it.
