For example. Imagine that you are comparing two documents (let's assume diff doesn't exist). You could ask an AI to compare the differences from you or you could use AI to write a tool to do it. For whatever reason, people are starting to go with the former not realizing that now they basically have to pay to compare documents.
I understand and agree with your point though.
Between corporate FOMO and the rapidly decreasing costs of actually running LLM's I'm interested to see at which side of the spectrum these two meet
If LLMs are genuinely helpful or even decisive in a military engagement, you can expect any host country to commandeer whatever data centers they need, leaving commercial entities to bid up the prices on the leftover capacity.
Another risk is that data centers are a great target for cyber warfare.
It’s ideal if your business can leverage LLMs when they’re online but continue to operate profitably when they’re offline.
If it was so good I would expect to see 2005-2015 advancements yearly.
