Tokens
AI models don't work directly with words like "hello" or "world" either. Instead, they break everything down into smaller chunks called tokens.
Output tokens typically cost 2-4x more than input tokens, because generating new content requires more computational work than just processing what you sent.
You’ll want to be intentional about how much information you include in your initial context, which we’ll talk about next, and how you steer the model to be concise or detailed in its responses.
