Will AI even remotely be profitable and not a black hole of money?
serving the models is already profitable. if they stopped doing training runs they could make money rn.
>>107013941OpenAI loses money on serving tokens, because the models take more computational power now.
>>107013944no. if inference on reasoning models was not profitable third party providers would not be serving open-weights models.
>>107014011third worlders aren't the ones making trillion dollar contracts.

It will get something like 90% of the way there, but then that last 10% is just made up nonsense.
>>107014026I don't think we are going to get there, honestly. Pretty crazy that a wrinkly meat bag inside your head less than a cubic foot in volume and operating at a very low frequency runs circles around buildings full of literal supercomputers for 99.9% of tasks.
>>107014065i think it's worth gambling on, even if it means setting the economy on fire.
>>107013921Well I've got good news for you anon. Money is created out of thin air, both digitally and physically. So a black hole will be no issue whatsoever.

>>107013921I know that ChatGPT is bleeding them money EVEN FOR PAYING CUSTOMERS because it's so damned expensive to run. It's probably the same for all the other AI companies.People think it's the holy grail or something and everyone is investing into AI companies, but I think it'll all come tumbling down and ruin the economy when the investment money dries up and they admit there's no way to make money off of it.

>>107013921Yes, by replacing jeets. AI obviously is overhyped and not that smart, but you don't need to be that smart to replace jeets.
>>107013921The end justifies the means. >>107014050What AI actually does is enforce total surveillance.
