Super interesting. My first reaction is to kinda roll my eyes.. LLMs are a sort of individual in my mind. A weird one yes, but they are doing essentially what people do so why pay for it in a way that’s different than what we do.

I did see though a talking head come up with the idea that AI will keep earth as a sort of ground truth training data for a long time. So maybe we will in fact get paid for what we produce?

Seems sorta like wishful thinking though.

If people find value in using LLMs over search I get that, but you place a lot of trust in the LLM and very few are going to verify sources so to each their own you get what you pay for when you opt for free or easy

I don't see LLMs paying anyone yet, they are a massively subsidised business, I don't think even OpenAI has a business model that would monetise in a way that would cover query costs, yet so I also don't see them sharing any kind of revenue

Is there any job you’d trust chatGPT4 to do for you right now?

I think I’d trust it to read my email and archive stuff I don’t care about

Idk if I’m weird on this, but I rarely use LLMs as search engines. Their memorization of facts is too iffy imo. Prefer duck duck go for fact finding. I do use LLMs a ton in lieu of talking to experts about something I’m thinking about, or asking them to write code or other text for me. If it’s a questionable topic or answer I’ll ask it to critique itself as a new personality. It’s already much rarer than before, but I would be unsurprised if I stop needing to hire humans to benefit from their expertise within a few years. Regulated industries will be the hold out.

Are you saying that the openAI API costs don’t actually cover the full price of each run of the model? Or what do you mean by subsidized?
