I think it is correct to include practical implementation costs in the selection.

Theoretical efficacy doesn’t guarantee real world efficacy.

I accept that this is self reinforcing but I favor real gains today over potentially larger gains in a potentially achievable future.

I also think we are learning practical lessons on the periphery of any application of AI that will apply if a mold-breaking solution becomes compelling.
