Claude Haiku 4.5 vs Claude Sonnet 5
Cuál usar y cuándo
Sonnet 5 duplica la tarifa de Haiku ($2/$10 vs $1/$5) y quintuplica el contexto (1M vs 200K). Haiku sigue siendo la base de latencia y precio de la línea Claude; en el momento en que los prompts superan los 200K o requieren un razonamiento más profundo, Sonnet es el destino natural.

# Why Your LLM Bill Doubled Reasoning models like o1 and o3 process queries through extended chains of thought before responding, consuming 5-10x more tokens internally than standard models while also charging higher per-token rates. This means both your input token usage and per-unit costs increased simultaneously—a compounding effect that easily doubles overall spend. Unless you've significantly reduced queries to other models or have very selective reasoning deployment, the math makes a doubling entirely predictable.

Reasoning mode works by having the model generate extended internal "thinking" steps before producing its final answer, and since we're billed on total tokens, that hidden reasoning text adds significantly to what we pay for—even though you never see it in the output. This is different from simply getting longer visible responses; the model is essentially "showing its work" behind the scenes, and complex prompts can trigger thousands of extra reasoning tokens per request. The upside is improved accuracy on complex tasks, but if we want to control costs, we should selectively enable reasoning only for queries that truly need it, rather than applying it universally.

# Fixed Function ```python def longest_run(xs): if not xs: return 0 best = 1 cur = 1 for i in range(1, len(xs)): if xs[i] == xs[i - 1]: cur += 1 best = max(best, cur) else: cur = 1 return best ``` # Bug Explanation The original function has two related bugs stemming from incorrect initialization and loop logic. First, `best` and `cur` start at 0, which causes single-element lists to incorrectly return 0 instead of 1—a run of one identical element should have length 1. Second, `cur` is reset to 0 (not 1) when a mismatch occurs, causing the next matching pair to be undercounted. More critically, if the longest run ends at the last index, `best` is only updated *during* the loop when a mismatch is encountered; if no mismatch follows the final run, `best` never captures it. […]

## The Bug The function has two related off-by-one issues rooted in the same cause: `cur` and `best` are initialized to `0` instead of `1`, treating run lengths as the number of *matches* between adjacent elements rather than the number of *elements* in the run. This means a single-element input never enters the loop (since `range(1, 1)` is empty) and returns `0` instead of the correct answer of `1`. It also means that for any input, the run length is undercounted by exactly one — a run of 3 equal elements only produces 2 "match" increments, so `best` ends up as 2 instead of 3. The claim that it "misses runs that end at the last index" is actually a symptom of this same undercount: the logic does update `best` correctly on every iteration (including the last), but because it's counting matches instead of elements, the final reported value is always one less than the true longest run.

Si la corrección funciona de verdad (se puede ejecutar), lo densa que es la explicación y la eficiencia en tokens en una tarea acotada.

# Introducing Prompt Cache Across Providers We're excited to announce our latest API gateway feature: intelligent prompt caching that works across multiple AI providers. This powerful capability stores frequently used prompts and their contexts, dramatically reducing latency and API costs for your applications. By intelligently managing cached prompts across providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and others, you can optimize your infrastructure without changing your code. Why wait for responses when cached results can be delivered instantly? The system automatically handles cache invalidation and updates, ensuring your applications always access current information while maintaining performance gains. With support for complex multi-turn conversations and dynamic content, this feature scales seamlessly with your business needs. […]

## Introducing Cross-Provider Prompt Caching We're rolling out a new caching layer for our API gateway that works across every major LLM provider you connect through it. Instead of resending identical prompts and paying full price each time, the gateway recognizes repeated requests and serves cached responses in milliseconds—regardless of whether you're routing to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google. What does this mean for your bill and your latency? Both drop, often significantly, especially for teams running high-volume, repetitive workloads like customer support bots or batch content generation. The cache is configurable per route, with adjustable TTLs and invalidation rules, so you stay in control of freshness versus cost. Available now for all Pro and Enterprise plans. Check your dashboard to enable it today.
