Quote

This trend towards using smaller, more specialized models makes a lot of sense if you're looking from an ROI perspective. If we’re talking a year ago, a lot of people were thinking, “What's the best model, what's the biggest model?” But I think as the reality has set in that these really big models, you don't necessarily need all the functionality of them for everything that you're doing, and they tend to be the most expensive option."
