Speaking during an interview on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” segment earlier this week, CEO of cybersecurity giant Palo Alto Networks Nikesh Arora implored the tech industry to lower the cost of AI.
During the segment, the chief executive argued that the cost to use large language models (LLMs) has to drop by 20 percent by 2027 — and 90 percent by 2028 — for the tech to be useful to enterprises.
“We need to see the pricing for AI come down,” Arora said.
As a CEO, you really should know that prices never come down. Prices only go up. Gotta generate that shareholder value.
