- verdverm 3y agooften left out of this argument is 1. After the expensive training phase, huge amounts of benefits can be realized during inference 2. These things save time & effort elsewhere, and in theory could offset their initial cost. 3. The rapid pace of innovation is drastically reducing the computational cost to reach the same levels of capability
