Seems like the Chinese open source models are mostly keeping pace to be ~80%+ as good as the latest frontier models. If that continues I don’t see how the frontier labs could get these premium prices.
Aren't those models "skimming" off the frontier models? (forget the term, but basically training themselves by prompting Claude / OpenAI etc)
If that's the case then once the data center / GPU money train runs out, the whole thing craps out
