The price war in large models has reached Silicon Valley - 36Kr

OpenAI is reportedly weighing lower token prices as AI price competition intensifies in Silicon Valley.

Anthropic has already launched a cheaper Claude Opus 5, creating a clear gap versus its earlier premium flagship models.

The two companies are now competing head-to-head on frontier models, subscription bundles, and enterprise customers.

This signals a shift from raw model capability to cost per task and control of workflow entry points.

The move could reshape AI margins, pricing models, and the wider market structure.
