Same argument can be somewhat applied to CPUs circa 90s. The growth did stop/stalled in the end.

One difference is that the more compute you have, the more work you can do. You can basically run tokens 24/7 building apps or trying to do research or running a massive model in thinking mode.

Would this work once the funds start to dry up and the business has to self sustain, at some point?

Assumption is that business become profitable, and not just break even profitable but profitable at their expected multiples, isn't it?

Not sure if it's profitable but I don't think intelligence can be compared to just CPUs in dotcom.

Given enough compute, you can a very smart LLM to work on any number of things by itself.

With all due respect, do you folks actually think deep and hard about what you write before you do?

I get the impression that you don't. This isn't meant to offend you, since this stuff is really hard to do. But I notice this a lot - wishy washy comments, that lack deep thought.

This place would be better with less posts but more thinking.
