Do any AI companies actually turn a profit? I feel like the only real winner is Nvidia because they are selling shovels to the gold diggers, while all the gold diggers are trying to outspend each other without a business model that has any consideration for unit economics.
- jstummbillig 3y agoI love a prudent take on company money – but given how investing works and how young this entire thing is and the (to me) absolutely real value, I find it hard to be very worried about that part right now. I can literally run a ballpark model on my MB Pro, right now, at marginal additional electrical cost. I will be the first to say that all of this (including GPT4) is still fairly garbage, but I don't know when there was the last time in the history of tech, where less fantasy to get from here to what will be good was required.
