If that’s true, you make a good point. Sounds like they could keep the business model around inference. They’d just need to figure out how to make up the budget for training, which I imagine could be done with good marketing on new releases. As well as finding ways to use more tokens, injecting ads, selling data, investors, … did I miss anything? It doesn’t sound impossible if the inference portion is as lucrative as you say.
