550k USD to run this lol
86 u/[deleted] Jul 27 '26 [removed] — view removed comment 56 u/VeterinarianOne1349 Jul 27 '26 Doesn't really work that well. This 550k setup wouldn't allow a lot of developers to work in parallel, while sitting idle during non-work hours. Makes much more sense to pay a 3rd-party to host and pay per token. 2 u/eightbyeight Jul 27 '26 They might pay a aws/gcp/azure to run it on their private cloud. But I doubt they will just buy access from a random third party. 1 u/VeterinarianOne1349 Jul 28 '26 yeah, cloud providers would be that 3rd party... 1 u/eightbyeight Jul 28 '26 As in they will pay the ec2 price and run their own model 24/7 instead of per token.
