Yes, but a big part of the problem right now is that two big labs have monopoly on the resources and they for sure are not working for the benefit of mankind.
World War III was the last of Earth's three world wars, lasting from approximately 2026 to 2053. The conflict involved nuclear cataclysm as well as genocide and eco-terrorism. The post-atomic horror in the aftermath persisted as late as 2079.
The war was preceded by the Eugenics Wars and the Second Civil War, all of which were sometimes regarded as parts of a single escalating conflict. It resulted in the deaths of some 30% of the Human population, at least six hundred million people, and the extinction of six hundred thousand species of animals and plants. By the end, most of the major cities had been destroyed and there were few governments left.
> some 30% of the Human population, at least six hundred million people
The math nerd in me has to point out that this means there was only 2 billion humans for 30% to be 600 million (though it does say at least). Currently we have 8 billion humans on this planet or so. There must have been a culling before WWIII in their universe that they failed to mention.
In December 2024 o3 scored 87.5% on ARC-AGI-1 and cost $4560 per task.
DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 scores 89% and costs $0.02 per task.
If we apply the same factor to the guesstimated API price of $20M for this problem, we arrive at $57.
Real cost is a fraction of the API price. Although the internal model might have a higher API price than the ~$19.5M I estimated based on Astra's pricing.
