      Sometimes you have to spend more than you make but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea! You just have to continue spending and one day it’ll maybe start turning a profit. Maybe not, though! 🙂 I love AI

        See my response below and keep an open mind.

        Edit: And yes I am serious because this is how business has been done for a long time

      You are not actually considering the scale of 20 billion dollars nor the jump in a single year. Those are bad things.

      The actual economics behind LLMs shows us they cannot become profitable ever, and this “invest more before becoming profitable” story does not fit in part because of that. Other companies who used that model had a way to become profitable.
