    And as DeepSeek showed, it isn’t that hard to distill the great large AI model into something smaller that isn’t controlled by a large AI company, making owning the compute made to build the model worthless.

      Yeah, I’m really wondering what the investment bankers are thinking on this. Everything they do is replicable.

      If the rent gets too high, people will switch to cheaper models even if they’re marginally less effective. And once a business starts running its own AI models on its own hardware, they’re definitely not going to switch to a more expensive subscription.

      There will never be an AI monopoly that will make back all the money they are burning trying to make a monopoly. I honestly don’t get it it at all. I feel like the world has gone mad.
