What's the Price Elasticity of Demand for Intelligence? (sergey.substack.com)

Intriguing post.

Wonder if mere IQ is the right metric.

Intelligence is nothing without experience, so we should probably aim to define certain level of intelligence applied to a certain knowledge base.

Further, there is depth and breadth of this knowledge which may define a type (specialist vs generalist) and level (shallow vs deep) of expertise, respectively.

I’d expect the nature of the data used to train a model would be reflected in the cost per unit of work: more proprietary the data, more expensive it would presumably be.

But assuming for a moment we can use IQ as the metric. I wonder what HN thinks what’s the level of IQ-equivalence of the state of art GPT-4o model.
