GPT-4 vs GPT-3.5 — capabilities and API cost framing

Mon, 10 Apr 2023 10:00:00 -0400

As artificial intelligence continues to advance, more and more companies are incorporating AI-powered chatbots into their customer service systems. These chatbots can handle a wide range of customer inquiries, from simple questions to more complex issues. However, the cost of implementing and maintaining such chatbots is an important factor to consider. In this article, we will calculate the costs of using GPT-4 and GPT-3.5-turbo models with a message cap of 25 messages every 3 hours for one month of usage, considering the same average prompt sizes (50 to 200 tokens).

Inspiration from Bryan Johnson’s “Blueprint Protocol”

Personal health tracking, for me, started with Bryan Johnson’s “Blueprint Protocol”—a push for self-quantification that matched how I already thought about fitness. I wanted the same granularity for my own body, and a Renpho scale with bio-impedance turned out to be a practical way to get a steady stream of numbers beyond simple weight.

Forking hass-renpho and the Home Assistant ecosystem

I found hass-renpho, a custom integration that pulls Renpho scale data into Home Assistant. The project had gone quiet, and with the original maintainer unavailable I forked it to extend support for more of the metrics the hardware exposes.
