Anthropic has released the latest version of its smallest AI model, Claude 3.5 Haiku, at four times the price of its predecessor. The company claims that the price increase reflects the model's increased intelligence as it surpassed the benchmarks of its previous flagship model. However, this move has been met with pushback from the AI community, questioning why the budget model is now less competitive. The new Haiku model costs $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens, compared to the previous version's cost of 25 cents and $1.25, respectively. The absence of the expected Claude 3.5 Opus model has also been noted.
