intelligence has always been scarce. and anything scarce gets metered.
doctors, engineers, lawyers were always gated, to get access you needed to pay by hour/ project.
ai was supposed to break this meter. but it didn't. it costs billions to train and infer the models, and that bill lands on you in form of a meter sliced into tokens and limits.
remember kodak? our parents used to click pictures with films - and because each film had a cost, you had to wait for the perfect pose, only then would you click. but as soon as camera became digital, photos became abundant.
now for the same pose you will click 50 photos, but this was considered waste, why are you wasting. but this waste led to a new habit, and this new habit led to instagram and snapchat. the entire foundation of these products is on the principle of photos becoming too cheap to meter.
now what does too cheap to meter mean? it doesn't mean free, but it means a point....... where cost becomes something that i don't worry about. it's the moment where the technology becomes cheaper than counting. we start to think of it as abundant, and at this point something changes entirely -waste is a signal. the moment people start wasting a thing is the moment a new behavior is born.
ai is still in the meter era.
look at how we use ai right now, you hit a limit and wait till tomorrow. you start optimizing your questions, you show your prompt engineering skills, you learn the magic of context harnessing - but all of this is just a simple sign that intelligence is still scarce and expensive.
we are living in the meter era of ai.
the day intelligence becomes abundant, we'll forget that we ever did this, the same way no gen Z knows that films ever existed.
and this is the sole reason why we haven't seen any consumer ai product achieve a breakthrough.
we check instagram 90 times a day, that is a habit. and no one has built the instagram of the ai era, because the meter won't let them.
rumik is built on the idea of making frontier intelligence cheap. we started with the most expensive modality - voice.
just launched silk 1 - our voice models that match the frontier in quality at 95% cheaper costing less than half a cent per minute.
and remember what i said. abundance will show up first as waste and people will laugh over it and taunt - why are you wasting intelligence. and the first signs are here.
as soon as we launched our api's, one person is building an app, where you can point to any thing - your chair, fridge, painting - and you can start talking to it.
a talking fridge is useless and that's the point. it looks as stupid as taking 50 photos for one good pose in 2005. the useless thing is always the first thing.
there's no word for this yet. there wasn't a word for selfie either, until photos became too cheap to meter. the behavior always arrives before the product.
i can see the behavior is here, the word and next set of products will follow.
