Lightcap: AI model scaling laws have held predictably consistent for six years
“I think it's how consistently the scaling of models has worked. It still breaks my brain. Like I don't, maybe I've been, if we've, I've watched the same trend line for six years now, but I still find it incredible that you can make these models bigger and they…”

Cahn: Separate Data Center and AI Model Teams Will Fail as Models Scale
“I think the vertical integration piece is gonna matter in the sense of you can't have a separate team running the data center and a separate team building the model. That is just not gonna work as these models get bigger and bigger. You need to deeply couple t…”

Ross: Hardware incumbents win because AI models are optimized for existing GPUs
“So if you are the incumbent, you have an advantage because people are designing their models for your hardware. It doesn't even matter if there's a better architecture out there. It's not going to run well, so it's not a better architecture.”
