And why do you think those improvements happen?
Is it (a) unchecked capitalism or (b) regulations?
Mainly because energy and data centers are both expensive and companies want to use as little as possible of both - especially on the energy side. OpenAI isn't exactly profitable. There is a reason companies like Microsoft release smaller models like Phi-2 that can be run on individual devices rather than data centers.
Is the insinuation here that the AI industry is unregulated? Because I'm not against regulations that would drive these improvements.
