The historic trend of Moore's Law, which predicted exponential growth in computational performance per dollar, has diverged for modern Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). While Floating Point Operations per Second (FLOPs) capabilities have continued to scale economically, memory bandwidth has not, creating a significant price-performance disconnect.

Agoran: An Agentic Open Marketplace for 6G RAN Automation
Next-generation mobile networks must reconcile the often-conflicting goals of multiple service owners. However, today's network slice controllers remain rigid, policy-bound, and unaware of the business context.
