Next year, a big new entrant is, for example, SpaceX, which is building a ton of compute. They’re actively going to lease quite a bit of it to Anthropic and OpenAI, most likely, because they’re the ones who have the marginal capability to pay the highest price.

Anthropic not releasing what their safety assessment says is Model 2, which is widely believed to be the next version of Mythos. They’re clearly not releasing their best models, in which case their revenue per megawatt stalls or can even start to decline again because other models are competitive again.

In some cases, the argument people are making is if you didn’t sign a long-term deal, because every two years NVIDIA is tripling or quadrupling the performance while only 2X-ing or 50% increasing the price… Then the price of an H100… Sure maybe the value in the market was $2 at 35% gross margins in 2024, but in 2026, when Blackwell is in super high volume and deploying millions a year, you’re actually now worth $1/hour.

Even if you halve smartphone volumes, because of the shape of the halving, the low end gets cut by more than half, while the high end gets cut by less than half, because you and I will still buy the high-end phones that cost north of a thousand dollars.

So in training, everyone just talks about MFU, right? But then on inference, right, which I think is one LLM inference will be bigger than training or multimodal, whatever, bubble inference will be bigger than training, probably next year, in fact, at least in terms of GPUs deployed.
