"Generative AI Is an Engineering Disaster - A shockingly inefficient trillion-dollar project" https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/2026/07/generative-ai-engineering-disaster/687901/ "The problem with generative AI, in the industry’s own jargon, is that it does not scale. The cost of growing from, say, a thousand users to a million is a key factor that venture capitalists examine when they evaluate start-ups. […] Large language models do not scale logarithmically. When they’re given more words to process, they get slower and use more memory—the time and resources increase faster as the input grows. In technical terms, LLMs scale quadratically. Any computer-science student knows that this is very bad.“
