One can't build frontier AI model for $10 million: Sam Altman

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman commented on his 2023 remark that "it's hopeless" for India to compete on foundation models for $10 million. "I didn't think then, and I don't think now, that you can make a frontier model for $10 million," said Altman. "If anything...it's gotten harder, and the total complexity and costs have gone up," he added.
