Inference prices are going only down. It could be that some top subscription costs more in a decade, but I fully believe a full array of competent models will be extremely cheap.
replyThe inference is profitable. It’s the training which is really expensive and not being reflected in the subscription prices.
replyDoesn't deepseek make $38 per GPU-hour? As in they can actually serve profitably?
replyDeepseek doesn't have subscriptions, you can only pay per token / API prices.
replyYes but the API prices are very low. So much that it is hard to spend over 20 dollars per month as an individual no matter how much you use it.
