I think many of them do, but there are also many “AI” tools that will automatically add a ton of stuff to try and make it spit out more intelligent responses, or even re-prompt the tool multiple times to try and make sure it’s not handing back hallucinations.
It really adds up in their attempt to make fancy autocomplete seem “intelligent”.
Dont they charge be input tokens? E.g. your prompt. Not the output.

Yes, reasoning models… but i dont think they would charge on that… that would be insane, but AI executives are insane, so who the fuck knows.
