There's a parallel to deep learning itself — the economic impact of the tech has been ~10% of what folks expected ~8 years ago, and being a provider of deep learning APIs / models has been a rather lousy business. Although individual engineers have done very well for themselves

Tech Commoditization and Engineer Value in Deep Learning
By
–
The more useful the tech turns out to be the more it will get commoditized and the harder it will be to monetize (paradoxically). The only clear winners are individual engineers with great deep learning NLP skills.

AI Impact Will Be 10% of Inflated Public Expectations
By
–
With all that said… it's obvious to me that the actual impact of the tech will be maybe ~10% of what the average person on my timeline expects. People have *ridiculously* inflated expectations, that aren't grounded in the actual capabilities (current or future) of these models.

Future AI assistants will be more capable and cheaper to operate
By
–
That means that the AI assistants of the near future will be considerably more capable than what we see today. And they will be a lot cheaper to run too, as model distillation techniques and architecture refinements keep catching up to raw model size.
