How about ship stuff now even if imperfect. Then as capable models come online, ask them to refactor. This allows you to deliver NOW and refactor later when the situation demands.

Satya Nadella reveals why every company may need its own AI model: the model becomes the new company database.
"To me, a model is like the database market."
"A firm should be able to take the tacit knowledge it has and embed it inside weights in a model that they control."
"When somebody asks me how many models should there be, I'll say as many models as firms in the world."
The contrarian part: the value may not sit in one universal frontier model. It sits in each company turning its private operating knowledge into a controlled model.

There are many research avenues which are open which reduces cost dramatically. Smaller task specific/ language specific/ domain specific models, in fact they could even be better. The earlier computers were the size of a building. So prediction based on current state into the unknown future possibilites is wrong. The hardware will be all the more valuable if cheaper ways to run become possible. The hardware gets cornered in a sense.

I wish Rich people did this more often. Not just rich people but rich companies. Not just rich companies but rich governments. But we are a broken society. People should be paying more to OSS for building digital infrastructure.

One more example to know if Company is about to go under is when the finance folks who have access to accounting books are leaving the company.

Sir Humphrey explains the role of a civil servant
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKDdLWAdcbM
"Bernard, I have served eleven governments in the past thirty years. If I had believed in all their policies, I would have been passionately committed to keeping out of the Common Market, and passionately committed to going into it. I would have been utterly convinced of the rightness of nationalising steel. And of denationalising it and renationalising it. On capital punishment, I'd have been a fervent retentionist and an ardent abolitionist. I would've been a Keynesian and a Friedmanite, a grammar school preserver and destroyer, a nationalisation freak and a privatisation maniac; but above all, I would have been a stark, staring, raving schizophrenic."

So plain old ensemble technique in classical ML.

> You plan to do nothing about them.
Here's another example, let's say we got the news from Andromeda galaxy that Andromeda Hitler is killing lot of people? What do you expect me to do ? Since space and time are equal, similarly we don't lose sleep over bad events that happened in the past.
