It is true that none of the LLM providers are profitable though, so there is some number above free that they need to charge and I am not convinced that number is compelling

None of LLM providers being profitable is exactly the situation I would expect. Them being profitable is so absurd on the contrary! Why wouldn't they put the money back into R&D and marketing?
I'm not well versed with the accountant terminology, whatever the word is to describe the operating cost, I am not convinced consumers will ever pay enough to cover those costs
Do you think if LLM's become 10 times more efficient it might covert he costs? What efficiency increase would you think is enough?
It's a competitive environment, no way the data centers manage to capture that 10x efficiency improvement. There would be an expectation of 10x reduced prices, because someone else is offering that.
The problem I see as someone who has implemented a bunch of AI solutions in a range of markets, the quality isn't good enough yet to even think about efficiency - even if the current AI is 100x more efficient it still wouldn't be worth paying for because it doesn't deliver reliable and trustable results...
