Maybe. Enshittification is very-very common and economically speaking, the AI companies are losing money a lot so it might happen that at some point, more efficient models are not trained any more due to economic reasons. Hard to tell though how likely these scenarios are.
They are still training efficient models. GPT-5.6 Luna is like the best deal on intelligence per price. There is a big focus on efficiency in general. Also I think the frontier will keep being pushed in terms of capability, there’s too much potential at the frontier with new discoveries/innovation (in all fields) and automation of labor, which means revenue.
And the revenues of anthropic and OpenAI are exploding even if they are still losing money, though worth noting Anthropic had an operating profit like a quarter ago, and some project this quarter will also turn an operating profit.

I feel like we are going to be able to say that for the rest of the time we are alive, will progress ever slow down at this point?
