A company wants to assess the costs that are associated with using a large language...

In generative AI models, such as those built on Amazon Bedrock, inference costs are driven by the number of tokens processed. A token can be as short as one character or as long as one word, and the more tokens consumed during the inference process, the higher the cost.

Option A (Correct): "Number of tokens consumed": This is the correct answer because the inference cost is directly related to the number of tokens processed by the model.

Option B: "Temperature value" is incorrect as it affects the randomness of the model's output but not the cost directly.

Option C: "Amount of data used to train the LLM" is incorrect because training data size affects training costs, not inference costs.

Option D: "Total training time" is incorrect because it relates to the cost of training the model, not the cost of inference.
