Xiaoyin Qu(@quxiaoyin):Guys, did you see the inference price war for open weight models in openrouter? It’s bloody war to compete on the lowest price. Reminds me of electricity. I keep hearing inference is huge margin but then it seems it’s a war to zero at openrouter nowadays. I finally understand why openrouter charges 5.5%. I keep hearing stories of data centers in Finland, Philippines and Southeast Asia that are just cheap, cheaper and cheapest? I wonder how US neoclouds cope with this? I mean enterprise is a good market I’m sure.
