>that’s some pretty amazing margins
That's just the (estimated) hardware uptime cost, you haven't mentioned the wages or the R&D investment

Sure, but until recently, OpenAI has been a not for profit researching platform.
That means, the R and D would have been written off as a cost of production for this product.
As far as publicly known info, $3 million a year is our best guess at what it costs to run.
Considering the excitement at future utility, I don’t imagine capital will be the constraint for future development.
