Thoughts on AI model releases and their market impact by year-end
I'm giving it about 60% odds we see another major, widely impactful multimodal AI model release, similar to a GPT-4 level, before year-end. My reasoning is the current competitive pressure; nobody wants to be seen as lagging. This isn't about some marginal improvement, but a step change that genuinely moves the needle on application and inference capabilities, which would certainly impact sentiment for AI-related plays like $ROSE. Expect a run-up into any solid rumors.
That's an interesting take. I wonder if the focus might shift from raw model power to more efficient, specialized, or even smaller models that can run on a wider range of hardware, given the increasing cost of training these massive models. A 'step change' in efficiency could also move the needle significantly.
