Grok 4.5 is out and performs well.
What bothers me is that it's reported as being much cheaper than GPT or Anthropic's.
One might be mislead to think the model is miraculously efficient, but that final price per million tokens doesn't factor in decisions such as artificial subsidization from xAI - making it not really a true win.
Do you agree? What's your take on this?
