Maybe You Can't Just Throw Money at AI
How and why Meta AI and xAI have failed, thus far...
Last July I wrote a post entitled "We're Seemingly Still in the 'Throw Money At It' AI Era..." The crux was that given Elon Musk's ability to get xAI's Grok models up to technical speed and the fact that Mark Zuckerberg was completely rebooting Meta's AI efforts seemingly showed that all it took to catch up in AI maybe the ability to spend massive amounts of money, fast.
Well, as it turns out, that may not be all it takes...
