Well, AI costs are definitely going to go down at least 90% in the next ~18 months for the same quality of output (and probably 90% again in the 24 months after).

Are you sure it's going to make sense to pay someone to do that moving forward?

I don't think it's worth it now, by the way.

It's definitely not going to be worth it in the near future.

Can we even blink for $0.002? What happens when the next 90% increase in efficiency happens??

This blog post is full of small inconsistencies that make it read like a low quality SEO piece. > We also extract a shared context file (shared-mr-context.txt) from the coordinator's prompt and write it to disk. Sub-reviewers read this file instead of having the full MR context duplicated in each of their prompts. This was a deliberate decision, as duplicating even a moderately-sized MR context across seven concurren…

Looks like they need some sort of agent to review their blog posts as well.

Would like to know where that 90% number comes from, and if it matches historical trend.

LLMs are so comically inefficient compared to the human brain that it is pretty easy to imagine this trend continuing for several more 90% drops.

If LeCun's JEPA or GRAM turn out to be a thing, we could see a 3-4 order of magnitude drop in a single release cycle / generation.

Keep in mind that performance per watt on the hardware side - at the same time - is still doubling every ~24 months - and this doesn't factor that in.
