He notes that the standard test his team uses—measuring how well a language model can write code that will reproduce the results of 45 scientific papers—costs $30 to run with GPT-5 set to medium, or mid-range verbosity. In her tests of GPT-5, Wang says she asked the model to generate code for a press page for her company’s website, including specific design elements that would match the rest of the site’s aesthetic.
