I found your comment very amusing and I didn't fully understand your comment. Can you expand on your reasoning? What is the finish line? Why are contenders li

  > What is the finish line? $0 / free is the finish line. Open source LLMs being released for free are undercutting the AI LLM services. > Why are contenders like ChatGPT or Claude "winning the race to the bottom" They're automating some humans in several industries and cheapening other professions. Why pay translators, copywriters, etc when a AI LLM can do it 95% cheaper or a locally installed LLM can do it for free. The pricing of these AI LLM services are close to free and they can't cut prices any further. Once locally installed LLMs eventually equal the performance of that of GPT-4, Claude, etc the only logical step for those services is to slowly increase their prices and add more features as running these AI LLM services is very expensive. Open source LLMs are essentially at the finish line of the race to the bottom but are admittedly not good yet, but will eventually be. Cloud LLMs like GPT-4 and Claude right now are good enough, close to free and are 95% cheaper than hiring a human journalists, copywriter, translator, etc.
