On what basis do you say they're within the range of profitability on inference today? Every source I see paints a different story based on their own bias.

Ed Zitron has a bias and a narrative differing from OpenAI's bias and narrative: https://www.wheresyoured.at/oai_docs/

Sam Altman said they were.

Your article has 5 billion in inference cost vs 4.5 billion in revenue. That's within the range of becoming profitable.

  • You seem to have misread the article (which is not mine by the way), which makes the point that inference costs and revenue seem to scale with each other.
