  The public is distressingly indifferent to both the handling of their data and their pricing power relative to the modern cartel. The enterprise is keenly aware that they will be decades recovering from how badly they got put over a barrel on cloud. The enterprise cares deeply about where their privileged and in many cases legally regulated data goes and is stored. Big business needs an ally in the tech game, and for once that is looking likely to trickle down to John Q Taxpayer.

    Agreed. None of the modern AI shops has anything like the level of elite technology expertise that the serious Unix companies did in the 80s or 90s: the Sun Microsystems people would eat OpenAI and still be hungry. And they got their ass kicked by Linux. Not even a close, hard-fought match. Brutally humiliated and driven out of business and sold off for parts. The reckless contempt that the modern AI cartel holds open models in, and GGUF in, and even Apple in on this stuff is staggering and makes me wonder if any of the leadership even knows the history. No one has ever tried to tell the technology community what they can and can’t do on their own machine and lived to tell the story. The people pushing DRM over the years need a restraining order against their own employees. Bill Gates is like, a thousand times smarter and more ruthless than any of these people and he backed off in his prime.
