95% over 20 million. Average Joe is never going to see 20 million in his life, so it's not exactly a concern for him. You can adjust the value as necessary to only apply to the top 1-2% or so. You can still have 20 million, and even more on top of that if you keep earning. Just most of that extra money will go back to society instead of being locked away inside a bank account forever

20M is not sufficient to run a single LLM pretraining run these days. It's a stupid threshold.

Because this is what the average person is doing. This is what's necessary for a happy and fulfilling life. What a fucking ridiculous claim.

So you cut ambitious people moving society technologically forward off because "20M ought to be enough for everybody".
