hello.
I am currently fine-tuning GPT-3.5-turbo-1106 and noticed conflicting information regarding token limits. According to the API documentation and Figures A, B, and C, it seems the model might support up to 60k tokens in terms of tokens per month (TPM) under Tier 1 rate limits. However, another document (see Figure D) mentions a limit of 16k tokens.
My question is: when sending a request to the fine-tuned model, is the maximum number of tokens allowed 16k, or does the 60k figure apply in this context?

Answer:
The 60k tokens you’re seeing refers to your Tier 1 rate limit measured in tokens per month (TPM) for usage billing. When sending a request to your fine-tuned GPT-3.5-turbo-1106 model, you are constrained by the model’s maximum context length, which is approximately 16k tokens (specifically, 16,385 tokens).
This means that each API call—combining both input and expected output—must remain below the 16k token limit. The 60k figure does not extend the per-request token capacity but rather represents the overall monthly throughput under your Tier 1 rate limits.
