Can I ask, how are people affording to play around with GPT4? Are you all doing it at work? Or is there some way I am unaware of to keep the costs down enough to play around with it for experimenting? It's so expensive!

How expensive? Plenty of folks here can afford to burn $1000 / mo to play with a hobby, I think that's how.

How much are you using it? I have been accessing gpt-4-turbo via API in a small discord with a few friends using it as well. Have never gone above 5$/month in usage.

Depends what "so expensive means".
Roughly, $100 will get you 5-10 novels worth of output, assuming 100-200k words.
That's a lot.

If you want to use over API you need to pay for what you use. If you simply want to chat with it, currently the cheapest way is cody by sourcegraph ($9/month for unlimited gpt4 and opus with a limit of 7k token). Phind is $20 per month, same models, 32k token limit.

Thanks everyone. Cody sounds like a good option. Alternatively maybe I can try something like this :) https://twitter.com/mertdumenci/status/1777882582136529130
