“FRONTIER LABS ARE ALL BURNING MONEY AND, AT SOME POINT, THEY NEED TO MAKE MONEY”
Markus Nispel Head of AI Engineering and CTO EMEA Extreme Networks
Markus adds:“ If enterprises try to address efficiency use cases with unknown and uncertain returns, they might pay more for AI than they paid for the people doing those tasks.”
However, the calculation looks markedly different when AI is used to build something entirely new for customers.
“ Then, the price of AI is not that important anymore because it’ s the differentiation that ultimately drives you forward.”
