Source Cryptopolitan

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman published a blog on Sunday explaining the rapid decline of AI costs. He mentioned that the price of using AI at a given level is decreasing ten times per year while the number of people utilizing it is increasing.

Sam Altman shared his three AI-related observations in a blog post.  According to him, AI price is decreasing as the average token price decreased 150 times from the early 2023 GPT-4 to the mid-2024 GPT-4o release.

Altman compared this AI growth rate to Moore’s Law which “changed the world at 2x every 18 months”. He said AI growth is “unbelievably stronger”

The CEO of OpenAI also mentioned that the amount of resources used to create an AI model determines its resulting intelligence level. Altman also observed that investments in AI technology will maintain an uninterrupted growth path. Businesses continue investments in AI development because its speed of growth follows a “super-exponential” pace.

Dollar presses 102 as the 10-year yield sits at 5.14% — and October hike odds are only 17%The dollar index closed at 101.99 (+0.20%) on Monday after briefly topping 102.07, while the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.14% and the 2-year hit 4.774% — yet futures price only about a 17% chance of a hike at the October 27-28 FOMC, versus roughly 90% for December. The driver is a global bond selloff, not a Fed repricing: France's 10-year OAT jumped to 4.84% ~ 4.94% and the OAT-Bund spread widened to 140 ~ 146bp. Here are the levels, the cross-asset read-through and what to watch.
