Gemini Ultra Training Costs in 2023 Neared $200 Million, More ...
According to Stocklytics.com, Google allocated an astounding $191 million to train the ingenious Gemini Ultra model in 2023. This reflects the immense financial investment required to push the boundaries of artificial intelligence. Notably, this figure significantly exceeds the training costs for GPT-4, which amounted to $78 million during the corresponding period.
Financial Analyst's Perspective
Stocklytics financial analyst Edith Reads comments: "The astronomical training costs pegged on Google’s new foundation model underscores the underlying cost pressure of developing new advanced technologies. However, the cost burden is a pain worth investing in as more tech giants augment their efforts to expand their AI network and develop new language models, including Microsoft and Meta."
The era of expensive foundation models started in 2017 with the release of the Google Transformer, rounding up to a rough estimate of $930 before the gradual transition to BERT-Large, another Google parody whose training bill shot up to $3,288.
