Claude 3.5 Haiku is out, with a couple of surprises:

1. It's priced differently from Claude 3 Haiku. 3.5 Sonnet had the same price as 3 Sonnet, but 3.5 Haiku costs ~4x more than 3 Haiku did
2. No image input support yet

3.5 Haiku supposedly beats 3 Opus though, and Opus cost 15x the new Haiku price!

I released a new version of llm-claude-3 adding support for the new model (and fixing an attachments bug): github.com/simonw/llm-claude-3

llm install --upgrade llm-claude-3
llm keys set claude
# paste API key here
llm -m claude-3.5-haiku 'impress me with your wit'

I also added 3.5 Haiku to my LLM pricing calculator: tools.simonwillison.net/llm-pr

@simon looks to me like Google’s stuff is heavily cross-subsidized, guessing 3–30€ is more along the real value of 1M token?

@simon Isn't Gemini Flash free for now at least? I mostly use it for some simple things for this reason.

@xsc it has a rate limited free tier, as do the other Gemini models

@simon It seems that we are getting massive discount for using these LLMs. Would you be still using these if, for example, the price doubles?

@xsc for personal stuff absolutely - and yes for most of the things I'm building on the APIs

@simon The price adjustment was disappointing. If the price remained the same, it would have been a game changer in cases like pair programming (aider) etc.
