Dave, I disagree, that price increases of cloud LLM usage will happen: because of competition from Chyna and because of techniques like TurboQuant: https://research.google/blog/turboquant-redefining-ai-efficiency-with-extreme-compression/
in meantime we all need to keep an eye on URL that shows current hitherto usage

@csb@podcastindex.social @adam@podcastindex.social Turboquant is just math. Now your local model has 4X the context window, but the cloud models will also. Yes, local models will become more capable but the cloud models will also improve one to one so I don’t think it’s going to change the equation at all on the larger business side of things. Companies like anthropic are bleeding cash. They will have to raise prices. I don’t see how higher token compression changes that.
