It's good to see price adjustments, especially for us here in APAC. But I'm still a bit dubious if this "lazy" GPT-4 fix is actually going to be a game changer, or if it's just a tweak. The real proof is in the pudding, as they say. Hopefully it's not just hype.
Crikey, a price drop and fixing lazy GPT-4? I wonder how this will really play out for the everyday Filipino user, beyond just the big tech firms.
Wah, price slash *and* tackling lazy GPT-4? Just saw this, and it’s a game-changer for my side projects. Coming back to explore deeply later.
