The defining differentiator in AI right now isn't model performance, it's cost per token. Because in this market, efficiency is what turns demand into actual growth. Roman Chernin of Nebius outlines why inference economics are becoming the central challenge, as companies operating on thin margins need infrastructure that can... show more

Most AI projects don't fail because models aren't good enough. They fail because inference economics don't scale. During #CXOSpice, Roman Chernin Nebius broke it down: ✅Closed models kill margins ✅Open models unlock control, if you can run them well ✅DataData only becomes a moat when inference is sustainable One team cut inference costs 26× in production. Only 30% of orgs use AI at scale, mostly in 1% of workloads. We're just getting started. Full conversation: #AI #Inference #TechInnovation Learn more about Nebius Token Factory:

🎙️ Want a full breakdown on why cost per token is a key metric for AI infrastructure TCO? We’re operating in a power-constrained world. Demand for intelligence is scaling faster than infrastructure can keep up—so metrics like cost per GPU hour or FLOPs per dollar don’t tell the full story. When it comes to TCO, Cost per Token is the metric that captures end-to-end performance across GPUs, CPUs, networking, software, and ecosystem making it the key driver of real profitability and scalability in AI. If you’re not measuring efficiency at the token level, you’re missing what actually drives cost. Watch the deep-dive conversation with Dr. Gerro Prinsloo , Nader Khalil and Carter Abdallah, live on the NVIDIA YouTube channel.

AI infra isn’t just focused on compute. Orchestration, data movement, and flexibility are becoming critical. From GTC, Brendan Burke talks with MiTAC Computing’s Raymond Huang on the “inference inflection.” What matters now: • Flexible > fixed infrastructure • Orchestration = scale • Data movement drives performance

AI in the network is shifting the conversation beyond GPUs. At MWC 2026, Intel's Kevork Kechichian, EVP & GM of the Data Center Group, explains why inference workloads are bringing CPUs back into focus, especially in telco environments where power, space, and efficiency matter. With platforms like Intel Xeon and Clearwater Forest, operators are seeing up to 30% performance gains and 60% better power efficiency, helping scale AI workloads without overhauling infrastructure. As networks evolve toward AI-driven operations and 6G, one principle is becoming clear: The future of AI infrastructure is about using the right compute for the right workload.

Delivered performance, not peak chip specifications, drives AI factory productivity. Rigorous benchmarks are the only way to see past the noise. In MLPerf Inference v6.0, NVIDIA extreme co-design delivered the highest token output across the broadest range of models and scenarios. Maximizing token output drives down token cost and maximizes AI factory productivity. Read the blog post to dive into the details: Baseten, CoreWeave, MLCommons

Mark my words, Nebius will be the first Trillion dollar Neo-cloud company and here is why (Save this). Roman Chernin, CEO of Nebius just said on 20VC that Nebius raised prices and demand didn't move. When a company can raise prices and still have more demand than supply, that's the opportunity. Chernin also explained why he is deliberately not charging the maximum. As AI shifts from training, a one time cost to inference, which is the ongoing cost of serving every user and every query, compute pricing becomes the cost structure of the entire AI economy. If Nebius prices customers out, those customers cannot grow, and Nebius cannot grow with them. That is the compounding flywheel built directly into the revenue model. The numbers are already confirming it. Q1 2026 revenue came in at $399 million, up 684% year over year. The AI cloud segment grew 840% and represented 98% of total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA flipped positive to $129.5 million. And Nebius signed a long-term agreement with Meta worth up to $27 billion over five years, a hyperscaler outsourcing its own AI compute stack to a neocloud, which tells you that even companies with $50 billion capex budgets cannot build fast enough. Goldman Sachs says the consensus is underestimating 2027 hyperscaler capex by $500 billion. Every dollar hyperscalers cannot provision themselves flows to neoclouds like Nebius. As that gap widens, Nebius captures the overflow with 3 gigawatts of contracted power already secured and a CEO who just told you raising prices did not dent demand. Our subscribers are already up massively on Nebius and come join Milk Road Pro for our full breakdown, how to size Nebius against the broader neocloud opportunity, and our full AI thesis.

As AI labs race to train and deploy new frontier models, existing models become more affordable with better tokenomics. ✨ "Everybody's trying to get to the next frontier. And every time they get to the next frontier, the last generation AI tokens, the cost starts to decline about a factor of 10x every year," said NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang in a recent keynote. Model optimization techniques such as speculative decoding and multi-token prediction, combined with inference serving platforms like NVIDIA Dynamo on NVIDIA Blackwell NVL72 systems, enable AI factories to boost throughput by 10x with one-tenth of the cost per token.

$This is the biggest irony in tech history. Microsoft beat revenue estimates. Stock plunged 11%, wiped out $400 BILLION in market cap. Salesforce reported growth. Stock fell 5.6%. ServiceNow beat earnings. Stock crashed 11%. SAP beat projections. Stock dropped 16%. Entire software sector entered bear market territory. Down 22% from peak. These are the companies everyone said would WIN from AI. They spent billions BUYING AI companies. ServiceNow: $7.75 billion for Armis. Salesforce: $8 billion for Informatica. They launched AI products. Built AI workflows. Hired AI teams. And the market said: You're all dead. Because investors just realized something nobody wanted to admit: AI doesn't make software companies stronger. AI makes software companies OBSOLETE. Morgan Stanley: "In an environment of heightened investor skepticism, stable growth falls short of shifting the narrative." Good earnings aren't enough anymore. The market is pricing in a world where AI replaces the software these companies sell. ServiceNow CEO tried defending on the earnings call: "AI needs workflow orchestration. ServiceNow is the gateway to this shift." Market response: 11% crash. Because here's what he didn't say: If AI can write code, automate workflows, and generate apps at a fraction of the cost, why would anyone pay $50,000 per year for enterprise software licenses? The per-seat pricing model that made SaaS companies rich is getting murdered by AI efficiency. One AI agent replaces 10 seats. One prompt replaces months of custom development. One LLM call replaces entire software categories. Klarna already proved it. CEO said they pulled Salesforce out of their stack. Built everything themselves using AI. And that's just the beginning. The software apocalypse hit hardest on companies that INVESTED IN AI: Atlassian: down 12.6% Intuit: down 7.8% HubSpot: down 11.5% Zscaler: down 6.3% Meanwhile, the companies ENABLING AI made money: Nvidia: up Semiconductor stocks: surging Memory firms: rallying The divide is brutal. Hardware companies print cash. Software companies get destroyed. Because in an AI-first world, you need GPUs to build the models. But you don't need software subscriptions when the AI builds the software for you. Jim Cramer called it the "P/E multiple compression crisis." Translation: Investors don't care about earnings anymore. They care about whether your business model survives the next 5 years. And right now software business models look doomed. They're literally stuck: If they DON'T invest in AI, they fall behind. If they DO invest in AI, they cannibalize their own products. It's a death spiral with no exit. ServiceNow spent $12 BILLION on acquisitions in 2025 alone. Trying to buy their way into relevance. And yesterday the market cooked them. The craziest thing to me tho... Most software companies beat earnings. Revenue was solid. Growth was fine. But it didn't matter. Because the market stopped pricing software on what it earns TODAY. It's pricing software on what it's worth in a world where AI does the job for free. And in that world these companies are worth nothing. This is the biggest sector repricing since 2008. $500 billion in market value gone in ONE DAY. And it's not stopping. Because every company watching this is thinking the same thing: "If I can replace ServiceNow with 3 AI agents and save $10 million per year, why wouldn't I?" The answer used to be: "Because you need enterprise-grade reliability." But now? AI agents are getting reliable. Fast. Software companies just realized they're competing with open-source models that cost $0.02 per 1,000 tokens. You can't win a pricing war against free. The companies that spent BILLIONS preparing for AI are getting killed BY AI. What an irony.$

$AI shouldn’t be controlled by a single company or person, and the reason why most AI tools are "free" is because you are the product. Your data is more valuable to them, than the tool itself. That's why Action Model is different. We use tokens so: • Every AI action has a real cost • That cost is transparent • Value flows back to contributors, not one corporation The token represents a fractional stake in the AI itself; economic rights, governance rights, and participation in its growth. And that’s how you run AI without centralized control.$

$NBIS cofounder Roman Chernin describes how their recent acquisitions of Eigen AI and Clarifai were all about speed, incredible talent, and acceleration: "The philosophy is very simple. We need to build so many things, and we need to move so fast, that we're always looking for people who can accelerate us. It should be exceptional talent, and/or something that has a great adoption." "Our two recent acquisitions [were] two teams that work on inference optimization. A big part of our business is how efficiently we convert GPUs into tokens. And these two teams — Eigen AI and Clarifai — one is focused on model optimization, the engine of inference. How you run specific models and all the techniques around spec decoding, quantization, and so on." "And the other is system optimization. All the routing, KV caching, and orchestration across the big cluster of compute and so on." "We have a very strong internal team working on inference. But we felt that we needed to move faster, bring more capabilities. Because the market is so fast."

Years before AI infrastructure became the most competitive market in tech, we were proving that behind-the-meter computing works at scale. Bitcoin gave us that proof. Real assets. Real operations. Real performance through real market cycles. Now that same model — the same power strategy, the same operational discipline — is expanding to serve AI and high-performance compute demand.

Real performance through real market cycles. Now that same model — the same power strategy, the same operational discipline — is expanding to serve AI and high-performance compute demand. The workload evolves. The infrastructure holds. $SLNH
