It's gotten much more expensive in the past month after AI companies changed their pricing models. They still aren't making money, so expect the price to be jacked up in 2027 as well.

I think eventually we'll reach a price point where companies will realize it's only worth it at certain tasks in certain situations. They're not gonna want to shell out serious cash so middle managers can have their emails written and read by computers.

    Yeah, there is a reckoning on the horizon. From what i am able to see, the only area where LLMs make sense seems to be testing for security issues in software. There might be some edge cases, like small models for generating in-universe dialogue in games, but we should really prepare for OpenAI and Anthropic and all the AI startups depending on them to crash and burn, taking billions of dollars with them. The only one here profiting are Nvidia, SK Hynix, Micron and Samsung - because they are the people selling the pickaxes and shovels to the fools digging for gold.
