We’re seeing our generation’s “traitorous eight” story play out [1]. If this creates a sea of AI start-ups, competing and exploring different approaches, it could be invigorating on many levels.

How would that work, economically?

Wasn't a key enabler of early transitor work that required capital investment was modest?

SotA AI research seems to be well past that point.

They were simple in principle but expensive at scale. Sounds like LLMs.

Is there SotA LLM research not at scale?

My understanding was that practical results were indicating your model has to be pretty large before you start getting "magic."
