There’s a way of measuring effort that sounds ridiculous at first but gets more reasonable the longer you think about it. The unit is tokens. I don’t mean cryptocurrency tokens. I mean the tokens that large language models consume and produce — the atomic units of AI computation. Today they’re a billing abstraction. Tomorrow they’ll be the closest thing we have to a universal currency of effor...
