I wonder how sustainable the free model is for ai startups. This shows how you can switch easily from one to another. Maybe we are in the golden days like back when Uber was cheap…

For Uber, car prices and salaries go up over time naturally

For computing, silicon has become cheaper and more efficient over time

I expect a race to the bottom and then some stabilization, much like we have seen in general cloud computing, and have seen with token prices

"For Uber, car prices and salaries go up over time naturally"

Or, your VC money runs out and you start treating your gig workers like crap to save a few cents here and there.

The bottom can still be pretty high! Storage has become an order of magnitude cheaper, yet I still don't bother with block storage pricing

Dedicated or S3 is where it's at, still plenty of room for gamification
