another commenter near the top (with some experience posted), estimating ~$2500/hour. 60grand a day to use hundreds of thousands of cores to learn to play computer games, roughly 1.8mill for 30 days of active learning. It's cool, does seem a little bit greedy, that is still expensive as buck yo. you need a big ol bank to fund you. dropping 60k/day on compute doesnt fly for many smaller companies if you ask me.
As our understanding of "AI" gets better, it'll cost less and less and will start to be affordable for smaller players; but the initial R&D always cost a lot.
