> What is the hardware cost to run a single instance of a frontier model?

The latest Kimi model, which scores higher than 5.1 Fable on Artificial Analysis, is estimated to require around 6-7 TB of VRAM to run. If we are going with many A100 GPUs for this, then we are looking around a million dollars in GPUs alone

> In the US I can start a company and instantly have a market of 350M. Start a company in an EU country, then try to expand to another country, it’s a nightmare.

This is not exclusive to the US, though. NordVPN is an example - it launched in Lithuania and now has global reach, and thousands of EU companies have went that path as well. I am not saying that it is on par with the US on this metric, but let's not pretend that such things don't happen in the EU

The foldable screen in the Duo is likely to be manufactured by Samsung, although chances are that it will be a heavily customized variant of what we see in the Galaxy Folds

The main reason as far as I'm aware was due to intense lobbying from car companies. It makes absolute sense from the perspective of Ford, etc. to have alternative modes of transport be removed from the streets

Of course they do not have the obligation to do so. This is more about Apple doing a nice gesture to the "owners" of their devices

> comparable to mainstream NVIDIA GPUs

By this they probably mean RTX series GPUs? If so, then they are not comparing the hardware efficiency with the A100 / H100, etc. that are commonly used for training models

> Although the LLM providers state that they will not use your data for training when you sign an enterprise deal

It can be very hard to prove in court that your data was used for training
