Problem with that website/perspective is separating training costs from inference costs. Training is a one time cost, and while it is certainly not something you can completely ignore, it being one time changes the answer to "Is AI profitable?".

That site doesn't list the dozens of companies doing pure inference, and making a profit while doing so.

Are the finances public for any of these companies? I'd love to take a look at them.
