Was my first thought as well. These things really need to find a way to store a larger context without ballooning past the vram limit
The thing being, it's kind of an inflexible blackbox technology, and that's easier said than done. In one fell swoop we've gotten all that soft, fuzzy common sense stuff that people were chasing for decades inside a computer, but it's ironically still beyond our reach to fully use.
From here, I either expect that steady progress will be made in finding more clever and constrained ways of using the raw neural net output, or we're back to an AI winter. I suppose it's possible a new architecture and/or training scheme will come along, but it doesn't seem imminent.
I fell like the way investments are currently made, coming up with something new is made almost impossible. Most of the hardware is designed with LLMs in mind
