Cost is a nice benefit in that, you know...
And surprisingly, this is one of the few tasks where you kind of get all the things for free, right?
Like we don't actually have to trade off cost and latency and performance.
And so just by optimizing for the drivers, actually latency and performance, and we just get cost as a nice side benefit.
I also think we as a company are at a different stage than a lot of people that are talking about tokenomics on X, right?
Because the tokenomic debate really is around, hey, I'm on a frontier model today.
should I, like, how do I analyze my costs and should I move to open source, right?
And there, I actually think it makes complete sense.
If we ran our entire business exclusively on frontier models, I would care a lot about costs and I would think a lot about that.
But once you've already made the jump to saying, okay, now we know how to think about open source models and we know how to decompose upon, we know how to build, train, and deploy these models very, very quickly,
all of a sudden the cost aspect becomes a lot less pressing.
But if you're still in the world where you're using frontier models for everything, then I do think thinking about tokenomics makes a lot of sense.
I also think, you know, everyone is kind of bleeding into everybody else's space a little bit, right?
True.
Lots of convergence.
All the labs are building applications on top of it because, rightly so, they're saying, this is how the enterprises doubt us more, right?
And this is how the enterprises see ROI from using our products.
Us on the application layer, we're realizing that
hey, we can squeeze out a lot more performance and latency and cost for the use cases that we care about by building our own models, right?
And I think this split, this kind of bleed over makes sense and I think it'll continue.
