"a16z: Under the pressure of huge computing costs, how should different enterprises choose AI infrastructure? "
The generative AI craze is based on computation. One of its properties is that adding more computation directly leads to a better product. Typically, R&D investment is more directly related to the value of the product, and this relationship is clearly sublinear. But that’s not the case with AI right now, and the main factor driving the industry today is simply the cost of training and inference. While we don't know the real numbers, we've heard from reliable sources that the supply of computing power is tight, with demand exceeding 10x! So we believe that access to computing resources at the lowest total cost has now become a determinant of success for AI companies.
