Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Team "all at once" here
Question for the crowd:
When you write a paper
(1) do you write it all at once when you feel you have enough data
(2) or do you write it in several stages, piece by piece, every time you get a good result?

YES. Main reason classic pretraining dominated for so long is just that you don’t have to think so much about the data or what elicits reasoning. It’s "here".

Many Gen AI tools are free now. If you do not train yourself (e.g. you never learn how to program without them) you will be dependent on them. In the future they will increase their prices drastically, and you will have to pay, because you can't do without them anymore.
