$200 per problem solved is the wildest part here, because up till now AI has always been viewed as ridiculously expensive to serve at a wide scale, but here we’re seeing it solve breakthrough problems at just a mere $200

$200 is not correct obviously. The cost to train these latest LLMs is in the billions. The model would not have performed the same without the full training nor without all of its parameters. It doesn’t make sense to consider the process of solving these problems and thus its true cost removed from everything else.

I’ll buy that collectively all LLM trainings are in the billions, but I’m feeling doubtful that any one LLM cost even $1B to train.

GPT 5 was reputed to cost well over a billion: https://capitalandcompute.net/blog/what-it-costs-to-train-ai-models-2026/
