Toni Cowan-Brown and Benedict Evans discuss the rapid advancements in AI and try to make sense of its structural implications. They identify key questions surrounding AI, such as the cost and size of AI models, error rates, user interface design, and trust and safety concerns, while parking the AGI conversation. They explore the potential market structures, from a mainframe-like model with a few dominant players to a more distributed model.
