I wonder when we crossed the "99 percentile of intelligence for 99% of the usecases" threshold. At this point, the gains seem to be right at the very edge of bleeding edge for narrow and specialized use cases, and wonder if it'll be a sort of diminishing return from here on.

Probably the best counterexample is the games they are able to design. It's still mostly AI slop, few would want to play.
With those cheap models the idea is you're still in the loop anyway so the more expensive model is a waste of time and money. In this case, that means you're steering the game to look like you want not how AI wants.
Same with the expensive models. Fable can't one-shot a good new game. Game dev is still human-in-the-loop no matter what model you're using.
