Should corporations and smaller businesses be training, refining, and running local LLMs to avoid the future cost of the new cloud services M$ and Amazon are rolling out? (alien.top)

It seems to me that the next big boom for cloud computing will be offering to train and host models that understand the unique business domains it serves.

Are the smart corporations already training local LLMs to understand and answer questions about their business, or is this space too new to accommodate them?

I feel like some of you may be missing a huge business opportunity. You may not realize the value of what you have already researched.

Yeah might fit in the US, but not in Europe. Dependencies can lead to problems. Especially when there might be a conflict. I would not want to run important infrastructure that is dependent on US services only.

All major cloud providers have data centers in Europe.

You are right. But if you have a chinese customer for example, there might come up different problems like with NVIDIA and GPUs. Independency is key for a lot of players.
