TechFlow reports that on June 8, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated that within the next 12 to 18 months, 80% of AI workloads may run on models costing 99% less, while the remaining 20% of workloads will still rely on the latest-generation models. He believes industry bottlenecks will shift increasingly toward energy and compute capacity—not the models themselves. Armstrong also noted that Coinbase is actively working to route prompts on-demand to lower-cost models, aiming to keep costs roughly stable in certain scenarios despite the continued exponential growth in token usage.
