I wish i knew more about the guts of LLMs because I keep thinking it must be easier to optimize them than to put data centers into space.

So then we’re going to drive down the cost of building & developing infrastructure, right?

Based on the type of AI models IBM has published, they are betting on smaller, specialized models that can run locally or cheaper in a data center. Their strategy seems to be similar to that of thr Chinese, just for different reasons.

For the same reasons. The old rules still work, most of the gold in tech industry is in tall RnD later paid off by scaling indefinitely. Things different from that are either intentionally promoted to inflate a bubble, or popular as a result of wishful thinking where that industry will change in favor of the same curve as with oil and gas. The latter just won’t happen.
Data is analogous to oil and gas here. But more like urine in ancient Rome than like something dug up from the ground.
But there’s still interest in making some protections and barriers to collection of said data, because otherwise those collecting it are interested to immediately use it for only their own good and not even of other fish in the pond.
