AI computation costs plummet, shifting industry bottleneck to coordination

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The cost of raw computation for AI tasks has drastically decreased, with the price to query a GPT-3.5 level model falling over 280-fold in under two years. Despite this, organizations are not seeing a proportional increase in effectiveness, indicating that computation is no longer the primary bottleneck. Instead, the challenge has shifted to coordination intelligence, which is the ability to align independent actors and systems towards a common goal. Failures in coordination are evident across various sectors, including healthcare and supply chains, where the difficulty in synchronizing diverse entities leads to inefficiencies and disruptions, rather than a lack of analytical capability.

    As AI Gets Cheaper, Coordination Becomes The Bottleneck

    The advantage of faster analysis is being competed away, because everyone buys from the same rapidly cheapening shelf.
