Understanding Investment and Sustainable Growth in AI
High investments in AI development raise questions about sustainability and return on investment (ROI). It's noted that the current expenditures on training models may seem excessive, but they are relatively minor compared to the long-term value the technology promises to deliver. With the rapid adoption of AI by millions of users, particularly in the enterprise sector, the expectation is that organizations will soon experience significant ROI.
