Not saying I am a fan of everything going on in tech world but it is pretty evident that AI is going to end up happening the West World “Rehoboam” big AI brain way than the Jetsons AI maid way, not purely due to corporate interests but rather due to the inherent cost of just making it work. Unless we can have PB/EB worth of storage locally then it’s going to be the cloud. And a cloud API with 1000 EB storage will always outperform your local 10 PB AI model.
The most practical approach that I can see would be to minimize the cost of accessing the model, making it free like author suggests for research, students, non-profits etc. and charging more for commercial usage, basically extending the existing cloud model.
One thing that I think should be free for everyone would be testing the model for biases. Basically if every AI API to check bias on any topic was free, then it could be improved by anyone including marginalized groups. If GPT-3 thinks all Indians are either doctors, coders, or gas station owners then I would like to be able to test, verify, and offer a patch without any cost, maybe even a reward. Otherwise GPT-4-5-6 will end up throwing away all Indian sounding last names applying for a construction job.
