Yes, it's not expensive but saying that it's 'one of the easiest tasks a computer can do' is simply wrong. It's not like it's concatenates strings, it's still performing complicated calculations using on of the most advanced AI techniques known today and each query can be 1000x times more expensive than a google search. It's cheap because a lot of things at scale are cheap but pretty much any other publicly available API on the internet is 'easier' than this one.
