"Most enterprise workflows don't require frontier AI models. Outside of coding, tasks like summarization, document generation, and briefing can often be handled effectively by lower-cost open-source models. The real value is knowing when you need frontier performance and when cheaper models are more than good enough." Michael Mignano What... show more

"We still need a layer that can bring the power of those models into the real workflows in the enterprise. And this is the opportunity for the applied AI layer." Aaron Levie on CNBC on why model progress alone is not enough, and why the companies bridging AI breakthroughs into real enterprise workflows are where the next years of value get created.

Databricks Chief AI Scientist Jonathan Frankle (Jonathan Frankle) says the bottleneck to enterprise AI adoption is evals, not models. "The models are good enough at a lot of really complex enterprise tasks and knowledge tasks" "the real challenge is describing what you want AI to do and knowing whether AI did it"

.L3Harris says Palantir helped them beat frontier AI models in less than 2 days, at 95% lower cost: "When we fine-tuned open source models trained on our own data, we were able to outperform the frontier models in less than 48 hours." "The cost of our fine-tuned open source model was 95% lower than the frontier models we were using." "AI is a commodity. It's all about the data. We view our data as a corporate asset. It's our unique hard-earned knowledge." "We believe American defense companies should not be a vassal for frontier AI labs, handing over our data and institutional knowledge, hoping to rent back the intelligence it creates." " We own the model, we own the compute, we own the advantage."

Our new Gemini 3.5 Flash is our strongest agentic and coding model yet, delivering frontier-level performance at 4x the speed of comparable frontier models at less than half the cost. We had Tulsee Doshi break down what you need to know about it.

.Sigil Wen on "Underdog’s Law," where local AI on your MacBook can already outperform frontier models OpenAI and Anthropic released just 6 months ago: "Underdog is your private personal AI that runs on devices that you already own. There should be no trade-off between privacy and capability." "I've really been tracking the Pareto frontier of AI models, and I've noticed this pattern where now the frontier models that could run on your devices and can fit on your MacBook can be more powerful than the frontier models that OpenAI, Anthropic released from more than six months ago." "I call that Underdog's Law, where the frontier models from today you will be able to bring to devices that run fully privately and locally." Conway Research

Great to be back at another stellar Modular developer conference: #ModCon2026! Thanks to tim for leading a deeply engaging discussion on AI infrastructure, the economics of training and inference, and the looming massive impact of open models. Takeaway: Efficient open models can achieve 90% of frontier performance at 10% of the cost. Soon, most applications outside of science and cybersecurity won’t require frontier models, for the same reason you don't hire a physics PhD for customer support. Congrats to Tim, Chris Lattner, and the entire Modular team on another impressive event (their first as a Qualcomm company!).

Aligned with Matan Grinberg's intuition that in the next 12 months, 90% of tokens could be going to open models. We're seeing more and more companies using frontier APIs for experimenting and open-source or private models for production and larger workloads!

Factory (Factory) CEO Matan Grinberg (Matan Grinberg) says "In the next 12 months, 90% of tokens will be going to open models." Enterprises are already shifting rapidly.. "At the beginning of the year, <1% of their tokens were going to open models." "Around March, it crossed 1%... & in May it crossed 10%." "These open models are incredibly performant, incredibly cheap, incredibly fast." While frontier closed models aren't going away: "They'll still have a place, but I think that place will be shrinking—at least in token share." And by the end of 2026? "At least in the enterprise, we'll probably cross the 50% threshold."

Today I’m excited to introduce micro1 Intelligence, the world’s most advanced platform for training frontier AI models. Achieving AGI is bottlenecked by one main thing: high-quality data. Data based on real-world environments that capture human expert workflows, complex decision-making, and reward signals models need to learn. With micro1 Intelligence, frontier labs can train on RL environments across every subject matter all in one place.

Gavin Baker Gavin Baker says open source is "awesome" for AI infrastructure names because it shifts the economic value from the frontier labs to the infrastructure, and it is already 80% plus of all tokens processed. "A misconception that a lot of people have is that open source models are somehow bad for AI. They're awesome for the AI infrastructure providers. They just shift economic value from the margins of the frontier labs to the infrastructure." "But I do think there's still a role for these frontier models. And it may be true, to date, frontier tokens are capturing 90% of the economic value, and open source tokens are probably 80% plus of tokens processed, and those ratios may be here to stay." _______ Follow Fireside Alpha for more highlights of the best business and technology conversations.
