Europeans who want European sovereign models, most likely.
- bonesss 3mo agoAnd Redmond Dwellers who want to sell integrated cloud office solutions to Sovereign Europeans, forever.
- thewebguyd 3mo agoIt's this. Microsoft doesn't care what model they use, they sell an integrated office + AI product, model agnostic. They'll offer whatever models they need to continue to sell their product globally. As much as Copilot sucks, I think Microsoft has the right idea. Model is a dumb pipe, basically an ISP. The actual value is what's built over top of it, and packaged up nicely for an enterprise to buy off the shelf and be immediately useful. I imagine a future where picking an LLM model is no different from choosing who my internet provider at home is. They all do the same thing with varying levels of reliability, customer service, speed, etc.
- Chyzwar 3mo agoAre you suggesting that European should use third rate models and accept competitive disadvantage?
- eithed 3mo agoAre you suggesting that Europeans should continuously use third party models be it American, Chinese or whatever?
- zamalek 3mo agoChina was behind the frontier before they suddenly weren't (K3). Just using American models would never have achieved that (not that they could have anyway, but the point still stands).
- satvikpendem 3mo agoIf they want European models (whether for regulatory or other reasons) then they have to accept it, whether they like it or not, because Mistral is not competitive. Personally I don't believe Europe as a whole can compete, being cutthroat these days is just not in their culture anymore like it is in Silicon Valley in the US and China as a whole.
