alt Hacker NewsI think you are calculating with current prices. Try to extrapolate the price in one year, seeing the current trends instead.

Extrapolating current trends, I expect API prices to drop significantly for a given measure of 'intelligence'.
The models I could reasonably run at home aren't experiencing big price hikes, as far as I'm aware.
Price is a reason to escape many proprietary models, but not so much a reason to self host. Buying an expensive GPU mostly for AI purposes is not likely to save money unless you load it all day long.
