The AI companies could probably be profitable if they weren't dumping tons of money into new model research, but then they would stagnate and die to the ones who keep moving forward.

Companies using their AI don't need to worry about that expense.

    It'd be so funny if research hits a breakthrough that absolutely collapses the cost of inference, allowing anyone to self host frontier models, eliminating the ability for all the main AI companies to ever recoup their costs.

    Well, except where everyone's data gets sold at bottom dollar in liquidation. Actually, that'd be pretty funny too.
