There was just a subquadratic model (SubQ)released that performs about as good as the last round of frontier models, with a 12 million token window, but with 3 orders of magnitude less resource usage. Google also has their compressed models which greatly reduce processing. I think at some point the stuff we use frontier models for today will be running locally on our PC's and all this buildout will have been for naught or for people who have such good business cases that paying top dollar for a better model makes sense.

Jeff Bezos's Prometheus raises $12B to build an 'artificial general engineer' for the physical world

“Significant productivity in the economy is going to raise the standard of living,” he said. “People who today have two-earner households, they’ll become one-earner households. Maybe some people who are working overtime will stop working overtime.”

I fucking love it when the exact people who make it their life's mission not to pay their employees living wages so that they can hoard wealth like an evil dragon come out and tell us that the new tech they are using to replace us will make us rich. Really fucking Jeff? How about we eat you and take it? That's the only way I see it happening.
