Part 9/10:
One intriguing question raised is whether the current bifurcation in AI models will lead to specialization. Currently, the trend favors multi-domain models demonstrating broad reasoning abilities—often the same model excels across math, language, and reasoning tasks thanks to spillover effects.
However, future models may become more purpose-built, focusing solely on specific tasks like conversational agents or code generation, to optimize for efficiency and cost. This specialization could allow for tailored solutions in niche markets, though it may also fragment the ecosystem.
