Dario Amodei (ceo of anthropic) has spoken about rising model training costs, and how he expected them to climb into the hundreds of millions of dollars. You could tell he didn’t like it, because it means anthropic has to do deals like these just to keep up. So now the gpu farms of meta, google, X, microsoft and amazon are pretty much reserved for large foundation model training of specific models. It was probably a good thing for Anthropic to reserve their spot at the pool, even if as you point out it creates tension with their ethical mission. What options remain for other players who want to compete at this level I wonder?
