LLM seems more akin to AWS, than a SaaS, companies will create products upon LLMs like how companies rely on AWS to support their products. The build vs buy calculus may tip heavily towards build once they can run on device with good user experience, no need to pay for cloud compute any longer.

Let me laugh even harder. Have you used any commercial software in the last 25 years? Garbage web apps have replaced very nice, performant local applications across the board. My stupid fitness tracker app (that should be a 10 MB sqlite DB) instead fails to even open without an internet connection. Is your theory that companies will suddenly decide they hate getting money and love paying money for developers to create great user experiences? I wish I lived in your world.
