@Allison Nathan : 我提出了一个问题,即中国公司DeepSeek推出的低成本AI工具是否会影响大型科技公司在AI上的巨额支出,以及这是否意味着Jim Covello对高额资本支出的怀疑是正确的。市场对AI的构建产生了根本性的质疑。 @George Lee : 我认为DeepSeek的出现实际上回答了Jim Covello的一些主要担忧。他之前担心预训练基础设施的巨额资本成本,以及技术是否能足够便宜以在企业内部广泛应用。DeepSeek的定价表明,智能令牌的成本将继续大幅下降,趋向于边际零成本。这并不意味着之前的支出没有用处,相反,它可能标志着更多人以更低的成本参与预训练活动的开始。我对AI技术持乐观态度,并相信现有和计划中的基础设施将被充分利用。虽然长期来看资本成本的轨迹可能需要重新评估,但技术历史表明,价格下降会被使用量的增加所抵消。我对AI在各个领域的应用前景感到兴奋,并认为它将推动创新和效率的提升。
