OpenAI slashes prices for GPT-4.1, igniting AI price war among tech giants
OpenAI slashes GPT-4.1 API prices by up to 75% while offering superior coding performance and million-token context windows, triggering an industry-wide AI pricing war with Anthropic, Google, and xAI.
OpenAI released GPT-4.1 this morning, directly challenging competitors Anthropic, Google and xAI.By ramping up its coding and context-handling capabilities to a whopping one-million-token window and aggressively cutting API prices, GPT-4.1 is positioning itself as the go-to generative AI model. Real-world tests by Qodo.ai on actual GitHub pull requests showed GPT-4.1 beating Anthropic’s Claude 3.7 Sonnet in 54.9% of cases, primarily thanks to fewer false positives and more precise, relevant code suggestions.. With precise, reliable outputs verified by external benchmarks, simple pricing transparency, and built-in protections against runaway costs, GPT-4.1 makes a persuasive case for being the default choice in closed-model APIs.
