Uhhh, I'm pretty sure DeepSeek shook the industry because of a 14x reduction in training cost, not inference cost.
We also don't know the per-token cost for OpenAI and Anthropic models, but I would be highly surprised if it was significantly more expensive than open models anyone can use and run themselves. It's not like they're also not investing in inference research.
