Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The AI industry is transitioning from a model-centric competition to an infrastructure and agent-centric one, where raw compute and persistent user experience dictate long-term value.
  2. Prioritize investments in AI infrastructure providers and platforms that enable model agnosticism and agent memory.
  3. Expect continued massive capital expenditure in AI infrastructure, a focus on enterprise solutions, and the rise of "sticky" AI agents that abstract away underlying model changes, shifting the competitive battleground.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The AI industry is moving from a software-like model, where products have long lifespans, to one where models are rapidly depreciating assets requiring continuous, heavy R&D investment.
  2. Prioritize investments in AI infrastructure and agent orchestration layers that abstract away underlying models.
  3. The market is underestimating the demand growth for increasingly capable AI models.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: AI models are rapidly depreciating software assets, making the underlying compute and energy infrastructure the enduring value proposition.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Prioritize building model-agnostic agentic workflows that retain memory and context, allowing for flexible model swapping and cost optimization.
  3. The Bottom Line: The AI race is a capital-intensive marathon where infrastructure ownership and a long-term vision for capability expansion, not immediate model profitability, will determine market leadership over the next 6-12 months.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Invest in companies building core AI infrastructure (GPUs, energy, data centers) or those developing enterprise-grade AI agents that deliver measurable, long-duration value, rather than consumer-focused models with short lifespans.
  2. The AI industry is moving from a software-like gross margin business to an infrastructure-heavy, capital-intensive play where sustained R&D investment is a prerequisite for market relevance, not just growth.
  3. The market's recent jitters about AI capex miss the point: demand for increasingly capable AI is outstripping supply.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Prioritize investments in AI infrastructure plays (GPUs, energy, data centers) and companies building model-agnostic agent layers.
  2. The market is underestimating the insatiable demand for increasingly capable AI, which will drive massive compute spend and make infrastructure the true bottleneck and value driver over the next 6-12 months.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Insatiable demand for ever-improving AI capabilities is driving unprecedented compute spend, but the true long-term value shifts from rapidly depreciating models to the underlying, enduring infrastructure and the persistent "memory" of AI agents.
  2. Invest in or build solutions that abstract away the underlying model, focusing on agentic memory and robust infrastructure. This future-proofs against model obsolescence and capitalizes on the growing demand for persistent AI workers.
  3. The market's recent "whiplash" on AI valuations misses the core truth: demand for advanced AI is outstripping supply. Companies that can build or secure infrastructure and develop sticky, agent-based experiences will capture significant value over the next 6-12 months, despite current profitability questions.

Inside the economics of OpenAI (exclusive research)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The AI industry is reorienting from a model-centric race to an infrastructure and agent-centric value proposition, where delivering persistent, high-value AI workers will outweigh the transient superiority of any single model.
  2. Invest in or build solutions that abstract away the underlying LLM, focusing on agentic memory, workflow integration, and robust infrastructure.
  3. The next 6-12 months will see a continued re-evaluation of AI valuations, favoring companies that demonstrate a clear path to monetizing agentic capabilities and owning critical compute infrastructure, rather than just shipping the "next best model."

Memory Mayhem & AI Capex Madness

Semi Doped

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The memory aspect of semiconductors today has gotten so extreme. Stuff is so expensive that people are simply not able to make lower-end equipment or like devices anymore. And this is like killing everything, right?
  2. AI chips deliver 65% operating margins, exceeding gaming GPUs' 40%. This incentivizes NVIDIA to prioritize AI data center chips.
  3. Meta's AI investments directly improve its core advertising business, generating substantial revenue from 3.5 billion users. This makes AI capex a straightforward investment.
