Spotify hasn't made a profit at all since its inception afaik.

Yes and it should be worse. OpenAI should be forced to take on the cost of compensating every copyright holder it exploited. If that means OpenAI doesn’t exist I’m absolutely okay with that.

removing the cost of R&D I would assume its profitable right? Once the model is trained running it takes significantly less computing. OpenAI has a fuck ton of customers so I would assume they are making back the cost of running their model API.

With these kinds of models you can't ever stop training them, otherwise you reach a point where the data becomes dated and thus the model is dated.

Think world events. Say another bird flu became a pandemic. The model can only know about that if it's trained on those events.

There are systems (Rag) that can answer questions based on additional content, but that would only work on a subset of problems/situations.

Oh true i did not consider that they require constant training to stay up to date.

People always act like "how can company A be a thing when it isn't profitable". It isn't about if company A is profitable. It's about whether CEO A is making money. As long as that can happen and, you know, others at the top, company A is right on track.
