Sam Altman discussed the Decisions API and the emergence of models like JEV, indicating OpenAI's strategic focus on increasing inference speed and reducing costs for AI models. He noted that while OpenAI aims to cover the main 'workhorse' models, new architectures and technologies will likely emerge from other labs.
“The number one request of Luna, and this is like an example of how people always want like more cheaper, faster, better. But the number one request with Luna, even though people love that model, was I want it to be even cheaper and even faster.”
“And so we have been thinking about how we could push it further in that direction. Definitely seeing the response to JEV made us more excited to prioritize things in that direction.”
“But I think you will see us try to push in different ways in the spirit of make the technology super fast and super low cost for common use cases.”
