There are going to be loads of providers for these open models. Openrouter already has 3 providers for the new 405B model within hours.
- boringg 2y agoMaybe for the time being. I don't see how else they monetize the incredible amount the spent on the models without forcing people to lock into models or benefits or something else. It's not going to stay like this I can assure you that :).
- Havoc 2y agoNot sure whether you mean by that post open router serving the 405b or meta producing more. Open router is a paid api so that can absolutely be sustainable. And meta has multiple reasons for going open route - some explained in their posts so less so (harms their competitors) I reckon there will be a llama 4 and beyond
- tim333 2y agoMeta will make money like it has in the past by having data about users and advertising to them. Commoditizing AI helps them keep at that.
