Can you cite some sources on the increased efficiency? Also, can you link to these lower priced, efficient (implied consumer grade) GPUs and TPUs?
Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to imply that consumer-grade hardware has gotten more efficient. I wouldn't really know about that, but I assume most of the focus is on data centers.
Those were two separate thoughts:
Can you provide evidence the "more efficient" models are actually more efficient for vibe coding? Results would be the best measure.
It also seems like costs for these models are increasing, and companies like Cursor had to stoop to offering people services below cost (before pulling the rug out from them).
