MODERATORS
My read on this is, that they realize that the full AGI is not coming and they need to focus on computational efficiency to be profitable. We will probably see a lot of work from them focusing on increasing switching costs as the models themselves become commoditized.
Their problem is, that their frontier models get distilled quickly by DeepSeek and co. The distilled models will then go on to provide 90% of the efficiency for 10% of the compute.
I'm skeptical they ever expected AGI to come as a result of LLMs, I believe it's just a convenient talking point both for hype, and to distract from more immediate issues, like how corporations use these tools to screw over workers.
