"post-training shaping the models behavior" it seems from your wording that you find it not that dramatic. I rather find the fact that RL on novel environments providing steady improvements after base-model an incredibly bullish signal on future AI improvements. I also believe that the capability increase are transferring to other domains (or at least covers enough domains) that it represents a real rise in intelligence in the human sense (when measured in capabilities - not necessarily innate learning ability)

What evidence do you base your opinions on capability transfer on?

> is new datasets + post-training shaping the model's behavior (instruction + preference tuning). There is no moat besides that.

sure, but acquiring/generating/creating/curating so much high quality data is still significant moat.

Compute.

Google didn't announce $185 billion in capex to do cataloguing and flash cards.

Google didn't buy 30% of Anthropic to starve them of compute

Probably why it's selling them TPUs.
