Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•At some point AI companies are going to have to charge real money to make a profit from their services. What do you think that amount would be and why?
2·28 days agoThat won’t happen due to token limits. According to Anthropic, only about 5% of users hit the limit.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•At some point AI companies are going to have to charge real money to make a profit from their services. What do you think that amount would be and why?
3·28 days agoLet’s do some estimates:
- An 8x H100 machine costs about $20 / hr to rent.
- With a 70B model with 4K context, a H100 node can do about 300 requests in parallel.
- A single response takes around 30 seconds to generate.
- An average user sends about 300 messages / month.
The throughput of a node is
300 concurrent * (3600 / 30) = 36 000 messages / hour.
The cost per message, then, is $20 / 36 000 = $.00055…
With 300 messages per month, the compute cost for the AI vendor is 300*$20/36000 = $0.16 / month per user. By contrast, a subscription costs $20.
So given these assumptions, it’s other things (like R&D, safety research, training runs, free accounts, etc) that represent the bulk of the cost and those could be scaled down to turn a profit. What will they do? Give how hyped AI is currently and the competitive landscape, I don’t think they’ll increase prices that much. We have products like DeepSeek on the horizon which are much cheaper, so it’s more likely that they squeeze money out of it by becoming more efficient.

World News@lemmy.world•Singaporean man executed for importing cannabisEnglish
221·1 month agoI’m not in any way, shape or form defending the policy of Singapore, but… given that they do have a death penalty for this, why the hell did he carry 1 kg into the country? I’ve been to Singapore and I was afraid to even let go of my bags for a second, for fear that someone would plant something on me.

Programming@programming.dev•Using Cloudflare CDN to synchronize a clock
171·1 month agoIf your device’s clock is set to the wrong time, it should tell you how far off the clock is set.
Why are we assuming that your HTTP-based method running in JS in a browser, using servers that are already distributed and time-synched with tech stacks that you have no insight into, is the “right time” and the directly NTP-synchronized clock of my machine is the “wrong time”?

71·1 month agoMaybe it should just say “this means your intelligence is below average”. I genuinely think someone with <80 IQ would have a very low chance of understanding the text as presented in the screenshot.
Stupid people are people with human rights too, and they should be considered with empathy when building a society. That should be particularly obvious to a site that performs IQ tests. For every person with an IQ above 100, there’s a person below.

What are you asking here? Who do you want to stop from doing what with your manuscript?
