The most impressive recent AI advances are almost entirely around efficiency. A lot of organizations have been releasing models that use much less resources. There are some local models you can run entirely on a phone now. It’s all due to Rampocalypse, and the tightening of resources, which is forcing teams to develop against lower resource architecture
Consumer tech is getting more expensive for the first time in my entire (shockingly long) life. I get a real sinking feeling in my gut, feels like a sign of a tipping point. On the other hand, I kind of miss the days when getting more and more out of the same hardware was the magical part. It always felt like when we lost that, we lost a huge part of our potential.
