My ChatGPT API Bill

1 pointnomilk3 comments

I've been sending my git diff's to ChatGPT to generate my commit messages.

Today I checked usage from the first 2 weeks: $0.20

I originally estimated a $0.08/day (based on ~10 commits per day at ~4000 tokens per commit), but it's lower because diff's are often tiny (a few dozen characters), and I only use it for a third of my commits - the rest require thoughtful (human) messages.

In any case, this was a fun experiment, and a cheap way to save, I dunno, 5 minutes a week :)
