Qwen 3.8 27B, not even the superior Flash Next 125B, running on a single 3090 in my workstation handily whoops ChatGPT 3.5 from just a couple years ago.

Seems like he's just drawing that line into the future. Which seems sensible enough.

I'm drawing the line into the past. Back when Biden was president, a computer that currently runs Flash Next 125B well cost $1400.

But yeah, I assume that when the economy gets back to normal-ish, in 2024-equivalent dollars, we'll be at 500B-1T for < $2000. That'll be 3-4 Moore's Law doublings since computer prices were sane.
