It costs something like $300,000 for the hardware to run a model of that size. You'd pay that for a single model for 1-2 years? Not even the AI companies can justify that kind of spend which is why they keep extending the expected lifespan on their hardware in the accounting.

I'm expecting the Taalas MSIC version to cost a fraction of that. Then probably have some kind of cheap subscription to Anthropic for updates (yes, Taalas chips can receive a certain kind of updates: they have a small SRAM).

You did not compute that as the cost for a speculative card from Taalas, right?
