Great points. Dont even get me started about how function calling in other LLMs costs me tokens. Something OpenAI provides OOTB. I'm also not a big fan of OpenAI's lock in. Right now I'm on a huge Claude 3 Haiku kick. That said, OpenAI does seem to get the APIs right and my hunch is the new Assistants API is going to potentially disrupt things again. Time will tell.
