Nice read.

But I am more worried about computational costs.

In the pre-AI world most of the things devs used to do were local; hence affordable.

No doubt that some models like of Gemma or others can easily be run on edge devices but sticking being an AI native Engineer will (as of now atleast) require most of the stuff to be in the 3rd party hands and be paid 💰.

In the web-dev world, we are fighting for 500kb js bundle to run on edge device or server for 20 years, resulting in SSR, SSG, SPA, and other variants.

What is your take on the computational expenses, an AI native engineer has to deal with?

Excellent analysis and subject matter, its a question of holding on for as long as you aren't in the way.
