A Reddit user is questioning the business model of companies that develop and sell Reinforcement Learning (RL) environments to major AI labs. The user posits that if these companies can create unique and effective RL environments, they might be better off raising venture capital to train their own models rather than selling the environments. This line of reasoning suggests that the primary value of frontier AI labs may lie in their proprietary RL environments and training methodologies, rather than just pre-training, architecture, or infrastructure, which the user believes are becoming more accessible.
