The argument flows cleanly from there.</p> <p>Suleyman, who co-founded DeepMind and now runs Microsoft AI, has been inside the compute curve since 2010. By his count, the amount of training data going into frontier models has grown by a trillion times over that period—from roughly 10¹⁴ floating-point operations to numbers that require scientific notation to state without embarrassment. The skeptics who keep predicting a wall keep being wrong, he argues, not because they misunderstand the individual constraints (Moore&rsquo;s Law deceleration, data exhaustion, energy limits) but because they underestimate how many parallel levers the industry is pulling simultaneously.</p>
