What Happens When the Cost of Intelligence Drops 100x

# Summary The cost of AI capability is dropping dramatically—a capability level that cost $1.22 per task in February now costs $0.022, representing a 56x decrease in six months with acceleration continuing. This cost reduction, distinct from improvements in peak model performance, enables volume-based applications like scanning thousands of documents or papers that were previously impractical, potentially unlocking new use cases as costs continue to plummet at a pace suggesting a 100x improvement within a year.
