Yes, agree that token consumption will increase exponentially for the next while.
Disagree that the frontier model is where the economic gains will be realized.
The smaller the relative gap between frontier and non-frontier/open weights, the less pricing power.
This gap has shown only to shrink over time, not expand.
Businesses will pay more for frontier, but not meaningfully more to justify the economics. It's always going to be a low margin business, perhaps outside of cyber security, warfare/intelligence and perhaps drug discovery.
Though the expensive and time consuming part of drugs is doing the trials and getting approval, not coming up with ideas
