    What? I’m not doubting what he said. Just surprised. Look at this. I really hope Sam IPO his company so I can short it.

        Can someone explain why I am being downvoted and attacked in this thread? I swear I am not sealioning. Genuinely confused.

        @[email protected] asked how request frequency might impact cost per request. Batch inference is a reason (ask anyone in the self-hosted LLM community). I noted that this reason only applies at very small scale, probably much smaller than what OpenAI is operating at.

        @[email protected] why did you say I am demanding someone disprove the assertion? Are you misunderstanding “I would be very very surprised if they couldn’t fill [the optimal batch size] for any few-seconds window” to mean “I would be very very surprised if they are not profitable”?

        The tweet I linked shows that good LLMs can be much cheaper. I am saying that OpenAI is very inefficient and thus economically “cooked”, as the post title will have it. How does this make me FYGM? @[email protected]
