Regardless of VC subsidies, the cost of compute always trends down over time. Whether you like it or not, LLMs will be a pervasive part of everyone's life forever (or at least until a better replacement comes along).
- asdff 6mo agoCost of compute trending down is usually lost as the resulting software bloat that fills the empty space like a gas. We already see this with LLMs. Models get bigger and bigger in an arms race.
- nradov 6mo agoOK so the frontier models will be capable of doing even more, but the simple stuff they can do today will get much cheaper.
