Tim Kellogg
Independent AI blogger who publishes technical commentary and analysis on his own site, timkellogg.me.
Matters to this vault as a case study in the sourcing-tier rubric: two days before TechCrunch's widely-circulated "under $50" headline for training s1, Kellogg published his own arithmetic on the same underlying GPU-hours figure from the paper and arrived at a third, lower estimate — "about $6" — in a post titled "S1: The $6 R1 Competitor?" His figure was earlier, showed its work more plainly (the title itself hedges with a question mark), and diverged from the number that ended up traveling — see claim-kellogg-independent-6-dollar-s1-estimate-predates-techcrunch.
