A comparative study has compiled the cost reduction cycles of several transformative technologies: While maintaining equivalent performance, AI costs have decreased by approximately 47% per quarter since 2023.
In comparison, AI's cost reduction rate is 4 times that of DNA sequencing, 6 times that of computing technology, 18 times that of lithium batteries, and 54 times that of electrical technology (statistics up to 1973). The charts visually demonstrate that the steepness of the AI cost curve far surpasses that of any other major technology. As AI costs continue to decline rapidly, they are likely to reshape the economic cost structure of various industries.
