Yup. Sam Altman stood before congress and practically begged them for a regulatory moat. Straight up rent-seeking behavior. I don't think people give Meta enough credit for their roll in that. Microsoft/OpenAI got cozy and thought they had a huge moat made of $100K hardware to protect their $10B investment. Then Meta shadow drops Llama and within weeks regular folks were running GPT3 level LLMs on consumer hardware. That was such a huge win for opensource and consumers.
