Image, audio and video generation
Nothing is counted in tokens here: what arrives is the media itself. A two-megabyte image is two megabytes of payload, not two megabytes of framing around some text.
Billed per megabyte received, at 2 Wh per megabyte, with no rate cap — the media is the payload, and capping it would amount to not counting it.
