Oh come on. Think how long of a gap there was between the first microcomputer and VisiCalc. Or between the start of the internet and social networking.

First of all, it's going to take us 10 years to figure out how to use LLM's to their full productive potential.

And second of all, it's going to take us collectively a long time to also figure out how much accuracy is necessary to pay for in which different applications. Putting out a higher-accuracy, higher-cost model for the market to try is an important part of figuring that out.

With new disruptive technologies, companies aren't supposed to be able to look into a crystal ball and see the future. They're supposed to try new things and see what the market finds useful.
