I mean no one should expect them to increase the price in the growth phase where money doesn't matter. Post-IPO when growth has a declining rate, they will (hopefully) have some lock in and blast prices as much as the market will bear.

Hardware will get faster. Models will get better.

By the time they reach this point of raising prices, if they ever do, the cost of models with current intelligence levels is going to fall a lot.

So all of these arguments about buying hardware now and switching to open models now to prepare for future price increases are still wrong if they’re argued on the basis of being locked out of cloud intelligence costs.

The cost for a given unit of intelligence is only going to decrease.
