I've seen sources like this before. It's all hearsay and promo. I was asking for any publicly available verifiable information regarding the cost of inference at scale. I haven't seen any such info personally which is why I asked.

I'm dying to see S-1 filing for Anthropic or OpenAI. I don't actually think inference is as cheap as people say if you consider the total cost (hardware, energy, capex, etc)

>OpenAI's compute margin, referring to the share of revenue excluding the costs of running its AI models for paying users

Huh?

The reddit summary comment makes no sense. How are they getting revenues without ads or paying customers?

"After" makes more sense.

FTA:

>The company has yet to show a profit and is searching for ways to make money to cover its high computing costs and infrastructure plans.
