Exactly, and the moats largely boil down to: "Why is there no Open Source replacing for Google Search?"
Big AI's advantage is still being made. Every time a user hits "Feedback" they're fine-tuning this proprietary model. You can absolutely make an Open Source model with enough compute, but if it is only e.g. "95%" good relative to the paid one at "97%" or "98%" are you going to prioritize it? How many of you use Google because it is 2% better than Bing for example?
- turnsout 4y agoIf it's 95% as good and it can be rolled into every product at basically zero cost, then yeah, the paid version will die. There are plenty of proprietary technologies that are better than say Postgres, or JPEG, or JSON. And some businesses need that marginal edge. But if the open source option is free, standardized, has great tooling, and is 95% as good, that's a real problem for OpenAI and their peers.
