Open source alternatives means that it will become difficult or close to impossible to monetize llms. It also means that no clear hegemony will occur. Fragmentation might be very beneficial for the status quo.
- badgersnake 2y agoThere is no open source LLM. What even is that? LLMs don’t have source, they have training data and they sure as hell aren’t giving that away for free. Even if they did you’d need to remortgage to rent the GPUs.
