I built a calculator for that here: https://tools.simonwillison.net/llm-prices

It says that for 850,000 Claude 3.5 output tokens the cost would be $12.75.

But... it's not 100% clear from me if the Aider FAQ numbers are for input or output tokens.

It's "total" tokens, input plus output. I'd guess more than two-thirds of them are input tokens.

If we guess 500,000 for input and 350,000 for output that's a grand total of $6.75. This stuff is so cheap these days!
