While true, it is pretty telling that OpenAI feels like they need to resort to burning piles of cash.
Generating a million output tokens in a month is trivially easy on the Plus plan which would set the company back 40$, per month, PER USER. Even in the whole blitz scaling model that we've apparently decided was only way to grow big bucks this is ludicrously unsustainable in the long run.
but the feature is only available to subscribers who pay a flat rate (not per token).

Are you talking about API users? It's definitely available for them, though not all of them.
o3-mini is rolling out in the Chat Completions API, Assistants API, and Batch API starting today to select developers in API usage tiers 3-5 (opens in a new window).

The post complains about token cost and invisible tokens, but the feature is only available to subscribers who pay a flat rate (not per token).

I think the question was if Deep Research is available from the API or not.
As far as I know it’s only available through ChatGPT and not the API. Same for o1 Pro Mode.
Anyone using ChatGPT is paying a flat rate and not paying per token. Thought they might run out of messages, based on what price they are paying.
The post is about Deep Research which I don't believe is an API feature.
Sure, right now it's only available to $200/mo subscribers. It won't stay like that forever...
