The link beat you to it: > It is not fast — about 16 seconds per token on our M1 Max

Well, R&D costs are able to make their way into the pricing due to the artificial supply restriction. If supply was not artificially restricted (through patents), then competitors …

The government backed monopoly to ensure that supply remains artificially restricted to ensure that the market will support the higher prices is

The more sclerotic the Constitution becomes, the more likely it is to have the entire system overturned and replaced wholesale. If you try to make the Constitution unamendable, you…
