News Summary

• OpenAI's GPT-5 AI model costs $1.25 per 1 million tokens of input, and $10 for 1 million output.
• This pricing mirrors Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro basic subscription, which is also popular for coding-related tasks.
• Will competitors like Anthropic follow?
• Will Google — who undercut OpenAI on pricing before — get even more affordable?
• If so, we could be witnessing the start of a much-awaited LLM price war.
• The underlying economics of vibe-coding tool providers is pretty shaky because of the high and unpredictable fees they have to pay model makers.
