It's that newer, more efficient models are beating older, less efficient ones." (4:23) "Within roughly 18 months we are going to have the equivalent of GLM 5.2 class intelligence running on a single RTX 5090." (0:52) "Why wouldn't you want to be in control of the models that you run? Why wouldn't you want to make sure that nothing gets taken away from you?" (7:56) "The hardware purchase today... does it get more valuable as models become more efficient and smaller in size?"
