有用户在 Claude Code 中让 Claude 为每项工作估算"若由人类完成"的成本，并对比 API 成本与人类工时的比值。该比值可用于长期观察模型能力是变强还是被削弱——比值下降说明模型更划算，上升则相反。作者也承认估算可能不准确，但认为关键是其随时间的变化趋势。

First of all, it's interesting to see what the "API cost per human hour" ratio is generally.

Secondly, the idea is that over time I can see how models get better or nerfed (if the ratio above gets higher/lower respectively).

Edit: as a commenter noted, the estimate is probably innacurate. But that's of little relevance as what's important is how it changes over time.
