Thanks for the models guys, sorry for your losses. Once this reality becomes mainstream and undeniable, surely the bubble pops and then what then. Future model development stops? Becomes private? Becomes a public effort?
The existing models are still going to exist. As hardware improves, there will be a day where it might cost a tenth of a penny to churn through 100M tokens a second of Opus 4.8. Established compute providers will invest in improving the models incrementally when margins drive them to look there.
