Yes. Did no one see Astra using a drawing app to just draw someone in the UI?

That's going to spend an enormous amount of tokens, likely an order of magnitude more than coding. Computer use will use a ton of tokens since input videos and images are much more costly to inference than input text.

Imagine an AI using Unreal Engine 5 to assist in making a video game.

Real world physical robots will likely use another order of magnitude more tokens than computer use.

So the progression is something like this:

ChatGPT --> coding --> computer use --> physical world use

Each progression will significantly more.

I’m not coding and I use it daily for video production, storytelling, and language learning. Tokens add up fast outside of dev work too.

Nah don’t think so like I have spend more than 100 million tokens in past few months
