From the commentary rail — every link leaves the site for the original piece.
- 26 May 2026 · Epoch AIIs a compute crunch coming?We estimated trends in global inference capacity and found that token demand appears to be growing much faster than supply.
- 28 January 2026 · Epoch AICan AI companies become profitable?Lessons from GPT-5’s economics
- 29 December 2025 · Epoch AIHow far can decentralized training over the internet scale?Decentralized AI training is growing fast, and while it likely won’t catch up to frontier models this decade, even narrowing the gap could have major implications for AI policy.
- 28 October 2025 · Epoch AISolving AI’s power problem with decentralized trainingConventional wisdom in AI is that large-scale pretraining needs to happen in massive contiguous datacenter campuses. But is this true?
- 4 October 2025 · Epoch AIHow many digital workers could OpenAI deploy?OpenAI has the inference compute to deploy millions of digital workers, but only on a narrow set of tasks – for now.
- 26 September 2025 · Epoch AIWhy GPT-5 used less training compute than GPT-4.5 (but GPT-6 probably won’t)OpenAI focused on scaling post-training on a smaller model
