What? They are not just generating this word in a loop. The model still calculates probability for each repetition, just like for any other query. It’s as expensive as other queries which is definitely not free.
Yes, it’s not expensive but saying that it’s ‘one of the easiest tasks a computer can do’ is simply wrong. It’s not like it’s concatenates strings, it’s still performing complicated calculations using on of the most advanced AI techniques known today and each query can be 1000x times more expensive than a google search. It’s cheap because a lot of things at scale are cheap but pretty much any other publicly available API on the internet is ‘easier’ than this one.

Which is very cheap.
It’s still very cheap, that’s why they allow people to play with the LLMs. It’s training them that’s expensive.
