>> I think they will pull ahead with cheaper tokens similar intelligence

they just increased cache read from 0.30 to 0.50 - this has the biggest impact on agentic coding. Elon companies have the most expensive everything:

xAI sub: $30 when other starts at $20, pro like sub for $300 where other charge $200.

Expensive electric cars, powerwalls, solar roofs when competetive products/better are cheaper.

>Elon companies have the most expensive everything

The Model 3 and Model Y became the highest selling EVs of all time because they were the first below $50K to have long-range and be worth buying.

Until a few years ago, every other sub-$50K EV absolutely sucked.

		highest selling is not same as cheap - apple also have the highest selling iphones among smartphones and they are still pretty much the most expensive (and usually not the best either these days).

The cache reads are really insanely expensive.
