Every few years, some new technology comes along that promises to revolutionize how we do business, and enterprises pile in headfirst without asking how much it’s going to cost. I’ve been watching this movie for 30 years. Cloud computing was the first act. Now it’s generative AI, and the bill is arriving faster than anyone expected.
The latest data shows that many enterprises are seeing their AI token costs run 10 to 20 times higher than initial projections. That’s not a rounding error. That’s a strategic miscalculation that CFOs are starting to notice, and they’re not happy about it.
Here’s the thing: This crisis was entirely predictable. We’ve been through this before with cloud computing, and we learned some hard lessons about what happens when you deploy technology without rigorous cost management. The good news is that enterprises are finally applying those lessons, reaching back to their cloud finops playbooks to wrangle this new breed of spending.
The 50x problem

SpaceXAI has launched Grok 4.5, pitching the model to developers and enterprises trying to control the rising cost of AI-assisted software development.
In a statement, the company said the model is priced at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens. It said the model is built for coding and agentic work, runs at 80 tokens per second, and uses fewer tokens than comparable models on some software engineering tasks.
Grok 4.5 is available through the SpaceXAI console and Grok Build. It is also available in Cursor, the AI coding tool made by Anysphere, giving SpaceXAI a route into a development environment already used by programmers rather than only competing through an API. SpaceXAI said EU availability is expected in mid-July.
In June, SpaceX, which owns SpaceXAI, said it was buying Anysphere, the startup behind Cursor, in a deal aimed at strengthening its position in enterprise AI tools. In a separate statement, Cursor said that Grok 4.5 was trained jointly with Spac
