@wim_v12e And it completely eliminates the cost of training from the discussion, even though there is no indication that they or their successors will stop *training new models* no matter how good the existing models are.
Until they provide a metric for "this is when we will stop training new models" I don't think "excluding the cost of training" is a viable basis.

@Robotistry I agree, it is considerable, especially as the energy cost of training has increased a lot because of the "reasoning" models. But with agentic "AI", I think the cost of inference is much higher than the training cost. He avoided that as well by focusing on ChatGPT.
