> Second, then the safety around the model. Ad runtime. We have lots of classifiers around harmful content or bias, which we then catch. And then, of course, the takedown. Ultimately, in the application layer, you also have more of the safety net for it. So this is all going to come down to, I would call it, the everyday engineering practice.

Is the piece I’m remembering

seems like microsoft has multiple layers of ‘safety’ built in (Satya Nadella mentioned on a decoder interview last week). My read on what’s going on is that the output is being classified by another model in realtime which is then deleted if it’s found to violate some threshold.

If you’re not interested in DIY shapeoko and x-carve are options well under $5k as well.

I second the MPCNC recommendation. Though if your goal is production and not tinkering with a CNC machine, it may not be the best fit.

These questions often ignore the investment (both in time and money) people have made in a particular platform. Even if you assume each platform is equivalent (which isn't true), there's still switching costs incurred moving from one to the other. For many people those switching costs will outweigh any costs incurred from the chip transition.
