Right now, all of these companies are incented to put out the best product and kind of compute power be damned.

Eventually, it's going to come down to a cost per token efficiency from the actual computing that you're doing with these algorithms that will incent these companies to be within the range or try to bring down their costs, commensurate with what they're going to see with compute power.

It almost is to the point where it's not like we need to get the best equipment to make this happen.

Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing

It's like, grab every spare part you can and slap it together and get some sort of compute power available.
